John, I have experienced these problems too...
The solution that I am using is to turn off the status cache...

> We are running subversion 1.4.6 linked against Apache 2.2 on a W2k3

> When I expand the working directory in Explorer it hangs forever and the
> only way of restoring this is to kill Explorer process which then

> I tried to wipe the entire work set from my local disc and getting a

> Visual Studio 2003 project with 100-300 files the build speed is
> severely affected by something that make my dual core machine crawl next
> to a stand still. There is no lockup but the file access seems to be
> extremely slow and I cannot tell from the Task manager that there is any
> particular tortoise process stealing any cpu power the file access is
> just painfully slow.

> When I logged back in today I was met with the same problems once again
> and with that I switched back to 1.4.5 and all is working well again.

> Also note that the Windows-XP machines I run on has all the latest
