Hi,

Yes - that was me. We ended up finding a lame but usable workaround so I'm
afraid we never got around to trying out the patch.

FWIW, we just wrote a script which ran:

svn up a*
svn up b*
...
svn up

Like I say, it's pretty lame, but it neatly mitigated the N^2 behaviour we
were seeing.

Regards,
Paul
