The repository is a significant chunk of data, about four times larger
than my biggest one.
So the processor is pretty good, the disk is fast, there is plenty of
RAM so swap file thrashing is an unlikely contributor.
Looking outside TSVN then the only thing left might be whether the drive
is badly fragmented and not NTFS.
I'm not trying to ignore TSVN as a potential cause, just looking for
factors that might differentiate your conditions from others who don't
experience (or notice) your symptoms.
Last night it took me between 10..15 mins to copy a directory containing
two full WCs and exports of the repositories between two new but slower
IDE drives. After doing that I installed TortoiseSVN and browsed the
larger repository with no noticeable system slowdown evident while it
built the cache. (Win2000)
I think I was running the last nightly 1.2 -r3505.
