Hi Tobias, many thanks for your response. I've noticed this issue with
the last few versions and currently with 1.4.3.8645

The time between the OK button becoming enabled and it being functional
is definitely related to the number of files to be locked. E.g. locking
a directory with 3 files is instantaneous. Locking a directory tree with
800 files and sub directories takes over 30 seconds between the OK
button becoming enabled and it actually functioning (incidentally the
same applies to the Cancel button too). During this waiting time there
is no apparent activity in the Get Locks dialog box. The issue occurs on
a number of different computers (all running 1.4.3.8645).

The repository is accessed over the network via the SVN protocol. The
server SVN version is Linux 1.4.2 (r22196). During the waiting period
there is no obvious activity on the SVN server and a tcpdump between
client and server shows zero network traffic during this time. The
server has a pre-lock script (from the crontrib directory) which checks
that the files to be locked have the 'needs-lock' property set, although
disabling this makes no difference to the waiting time.

Please let me know if you require any further information.

Best wishes,

David
