From my experience, setting the property "svn:eol-style : native"
seriously degraded svn performance for that project when accessed via
Windows, for checkout and update. I've no idea if removing this
property would then speed up these svn operations.

I use svnserve hosted on a Linux platform and mostly update code from a
WinXP machine.

We've about five projects hosted under one repository, and only one of
them is Unix/Linux based, so I set eol-style:native for that one project
only. Now it takes significantly longer than it used to for checkout or
update on that project from a Windows box(*).

Also, my employer enforces a virus checker on all the Windows boxes; the
on-demand virus scanner goes nuts when starting a checkout. I can see
the scanner sitting between 30% to 60% CPU usage during the checkout.

I don't know if this will help you tweak or alter your Windows usage to
speed it up, but I'll be following this thread to see if there is any
speedup available.

Cheers,
Rob Swarbrick

(*) Why check it out on Windows? Because we've only command-line access
to the Linux machines, and I oh-so-prefer graphical, coloured diff's
etc.
