If you have a pre 1.2 server, then the only real way to improve the
speed is to upgrade your server. Server version < 1.2 don't know the
'--limit' switch, which TSVN uses to fetch the first log messages. So
Subversion (to provide compatibility) fetches *all* messages and then
just filters out the rest which was not requested.
