Share Project is not doing svn import. It is doing an "in-place" import.
Meaning it svn adds everything and then does svn commit. Advantage to
this is that it leaves you with a working copy. You can do an svn import
from the SVN Repositories view. You will need to follow that up with a
checkout.
Regardless, I presume that doing a Share Project of 40K files and 220 MB
is not an every day task. It seems like checking out and working with the
project would be a better test of the plugin.

I was not suggesting one is better than the other, just how it would
factor into memory usage and your diagnostics. If you were using an
all-Java solution and there was a memory leak, it would show up in the
heap size and allocation. If you are using JavaHL, then there are memory
allocations also happening in the Subversion libraries which would not
show in the Java heap.

We have no way to know the answer to that. Like I said earlier,
committing 46K items is not likely to be something you, or anyone, do on a
regular basis. We have made performance fixes to help with large
projects, but I do not really know if that takes care of all issues.

The only unit test suite we have is on the svnClientAdapter layer, which
is the Subversion API. There are no tests for the plugins. Do you know
that your (very) mature vendor has automated test suites, or do you just
assume so because they are a (very) mature vendor? Where would Microsoft
and SourceSafe fit on this scale? I have used commercial plugins, such as
the one for PVCS Version Manager. It would try to get the repository
status of each of your 46K files each time you started Eclipse.
