I think if you upgrade your client-side to at least 1.6.17, you'll
also see a significant improvement. An issue regarding slow creation
of temp-files in directories with a lot of entries has been fixed in
that release [1], and that sounds like it might be related. So that's
one of the reasons why your 1.7.7-client is faster (and WC-NG also
helps a lot of course).
The next release, 1.8, will contain further performance improvements,
reducing I/O (both client- and server-side). But the work continues of
course ... (and contributions are always welcome ;-).
