[TSVN] Memory problem when "move files in subversion to here"

Hi,

I have came across a big issue when using right-click and moving
subversion-controlled files from a subversion-controlled folder to
another subversion-controlled one.

Create a new repository on harddisk with 2 folders 'a' and 'b'. Add
files from TortoisePlink to 'a' (just a CMD copy, do not use 'move
files in subversion to here or similar). Commit all.

With 65 files totalling 927 Kb there, now select all files in 'a' and
use right-click and "Move files in Subversion to here" to move them to
folder 'b'. Watch your memory: in my system TortoiseProc used "just"
35Mb!!!! to perform that operation!

At work, when doing the same with the files of my project, no more
than 80 files at a time, I got more than 400Mb used, which was too
much for my poor system.

Using command line: "for %p in (a\*) do svn mv %p b" tooks a little
longer but no more than 2 Mb are used in total.

Using TortoiseSVN 1.0.6, Build 1200, UNICODE (yet :P)

Best regards,

Fernando Najera
