Yikes... 48 hours and still going!!
I am not one of the developers, but that doesn't sound right to me.
I wonder if anything like real-time anti-virus checking is adding to the 
slowness of things given the large number of file revisions (I am assuming)?
I also wonder if you fired up sysinternals ProcessExplorer (pointed at 
svnadmin) and Filemon would show anything useful? These are useful if 
you cant run a debugger and step through the source.
(If you havent used these tools to investigate issues before on Windows, 
there is a decent power point presentation here:
