(I suspect you'll need to give a few more details unless there's an
obvious answer that I don't know about.)

# of files in a revision?

# of files in a single directory?

# of revisions in the repository?

size of individual revision files?

size of the overall repository?

what file system?

Maybe looking at the output of top/atop during a checkout to see if you
are CPU or DISK bottlenecked?
