We see from many posts here that it is essentially a problem for
Windows users (in several years of use I've never had a problem with
workspace performance on OS X or Linux). It could be that the
adoption profile for Subversion is shifting towards Windows (perhaps
the bad news about VSS is finally getting through).
A little patience would serve you, and as Hyrum said, help is always
welcome.
