No. The hook script has local access to the repository and is a *lot*
faster in that area. Of course, if you have a very big repository, it
still can take a few seconds for the check to finish.

Well, python is not the problem. As I said, the problem lies in 'svn ls'
(or better svn_client_ls2(), the API TSVN uses). If you search the
Subversion dev list, you'll find a whole thread about this issue. The
problem is how Subversion implements the DAV requests over http/https in
that case - it just transfers a *lot* of unused data (unused by
Subversion, but not by other DAV clients). I'm not sure if something
will be changed to fix that issue, or if it even can be fixed.
Ben-Collins Sussman is the guy who knows DAV best...
