Sorry I'm still off subject a little, but it kinda puzzled me when you
said, "We don't have Linux here (and will not for the forseeable
future, migration cost is too high...", Something bothered me--from
the beginning of this discussion, you have been revealing
cost-after-cost related to *not* migrating... Hmmm. The bottom line
for us was that if migrating to GNU/Linux costs more than staying
with microsoft, then we were going about the migration the wrong way
(asking for the trouble you're getting).

I paid nothing but effort for my SUSE 10. You obviously have not saved
effort by sticking with what you had. You are only saving yourself
from any chance of resolving your performance problem. I guess that's
all the more I could say...

Except if I understand your situation, I was wondering how long it
would take to `touch` each of the working files of the shared WC,
because that would be the quickest way to update every timestamp and
force subversion to compare each to see which have changed. You would
have to make sure `touch` doesn't get the copies within ".svn" of
course.
