No. You will notice that TSVN's ShowLog gives you the list of changed
files with each revision. The command line equivalent is therefore:
svn log -v absolute/path/to/a.txt

I guess there was a huge import at rev 1 and the extra activity is due
to fetching all those paths.

I do not know a lot about networks, but my guess is that you would get
better results by using a server (svnserve is small and simple) rather
than file:// access over the network. That way, only the output gets
sent over the network instead of letting Windows send all those file
open/seek/read requests over the network.

You would also benefit from keeping your working copy on the local hard
disk, although it won't help in this case.
