Would you think the implementation of a pre-commit hook to check for conflicting filename case, would suffer similar performance problem?

I tried the http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/contrib/hook-scripts/check-case-in sensitive.py. but only on a very small repos, so this gave no idea of performance. I would'nt be surprised if it would be slow due to the interpreted nature of the Python program.
Problem with this solution is that it relies on Python being installed. Better then would be a single executable, but maybe it all ends up waiting at the same bottleneck as Stefan mentions: "('svn ls' isn't very fast)"
