Hi Nathan,
This is sort of what I expected to be the solution. I was just sort of
hoping I could tell tortoise to do start looking at revision 5960.
Thanks anyway. It is already fast when you browse the root
directories, but the smaller subdirectories, and individual files will
always be a problem, since they are not likely to get to a 100. For me
this is not really a issue, because 1) I use the command line client
most of the time, and 2) I use log rarely (when I want to blame
somebody). However there are some people who's job it is to browse
logs daily:).

Thanks for all the help everybody.

Marius
