Moving folders is very slow in svn and does a lot of file accesses.
There were a few commits lately which will help improve that situation.

As for the "access denied" problem: there might be another process on
your machine that's opening the moved files or the wc database file
while the move operation is in progress (virus scanner, search indexer,
...).

You could try running ProcExplorer from SysInternals and then check the
last entries before you get the error message: maybe you can see there
which file and which process are involved.
