Windows server antivirus causing huge slowdown on SVN checkout

We have a Linux box with SVN on and Windows clients running an SVN
client, the windows workstation maps a drive to the Linux server and
another to the Windows server, when checking out files from the
workstation to the mapped drive on the Windows server it runs very slow,
we've found temporarily disabling the antivirus on the Windows server
makes the problem disappear (its Kaspersky antivirus 5) obviously this
isn't ideal and we cant leave the AV disabled, the AV product has
exclusions set on network drives etc but it makes no difference.

Wondered if anyone else has come across this problem and knows of a
resolution?

Regards

Chris
