Yes I know. That operation is not done in a separate thread (because you
could end up with multiple threads if you doubleclick on entries too
often and the previous operation hasn't finished yet).

That's a known bug. But it won't be fixed until Subversion 1.4 comes
out. The reason is that Subversion 1.4 will have a new API which allows
to find out which files have changed between URLs/revisions *without*
first fetching the unified diff and parsing the diff (which is what TSVN
does now). That means it will be much, much faster than now, and of
course also more reliable.
So I just don't want to spend time on something that I have to rewrite
later anyway again.
