Nothing known in TSVN.

If you delete a full working copy, there are lots of files in the .svn
directory which then clog up the recycle bin and slow down subsequent
deletes. On my PC emptying the recycle bin made a big difference to the
delete response time.

Do you have network drives enabled for icon overlays in the TSVN look &
feel settings? That can slow things down if TSVN is trying to refresh
status over a slow network. Not specific to delete though.

Try using the windows performance monitor to check what process is busy
all this time. Try using filemon (from www.sysinternals.com) to find out
if there is any mad file access happening.

Let us know what you find out.
