How about something like:

"If enabled, speeds up fetching log messages from pre-1.2 repository
servers"

Did you look to see what the tooltip says already ;-)

And the manual says:

As of version 1.2, Subversion servers support fetching a defined
number of log messages, rather than the log messages from a range
of revisions. With the new API, if you ask for 100 messages you
will get 100 message. With the old API, if you ask for 100 messages
you get the messages from the last 100 repository revisions. If your
file didn't change often, you will see few messages.

Are you happy with that?

Simon
