They only need to read the control files and check the timestamps for
most of the files. This is no different than cvs, so it does not
account for a slowdown with svn.

If the timestamps get messed up ( and I used to see this frequently on
windows ) then all the files must be read in full, causing the process
to slow to a crawl. An svn cleanup should fix that.
