Shoot... are we trying to make svn perform faster, or grind the
process to a halt??

Can you imagine the increased _drag___ if svn were supposed to assume
that every timestamp were meaningless, and have to compare entire
contents instead? That would be horrendous! I say if you haven't got
valid timestamps (especially for large number of files), you haven't
got version control.
