Wow! Thanks for those scripts!

Now here, the memory use of TSVN during the commit got me really
worried. Took quite some time, but I finally found the reason: TSVN
still commits all files separately, even if you don't deselect entries
but commit everything the commit dialog shows you.
If you try the same with the CL client, the memory use is also above 200MB.

I now (r5769) changed TSVN so that it really only commit the files
separately under the following conditions:
- multiple entries were selected to show the commit dialog (in that
case, we can't be sure that committing the parent dir only is really the
same)
- entries are unchecked in the commit dialog to not commit them
- entries inside svn:externals are selected for commit too.

So only in these cases the memory use will grow - but that's something
for the Subversion guys to fix/change/improve.

Stefan

btw: I'm now using your scripts to stress test the status cache :)
