svn is slow...

svn is slow. Ever tried svn commit or cleanup over trunk KDE ? I started a commit, pressed Ctrl-C to cancel it. It didn't cancel within maybe half a minute. I killed it with -9. Then I tried update, but it told me that it was locked and I should do a cleanup. So I did a cleanup. It took approx. 5 minutes :-/ Now I'm updating again...

cvs wasn't so bad after all. It felt much faster, and was dead-simple on the server. Shorter urls like "cvs co kdebase" and you had everything, no long "svn co https://whatever..." I never can remember.

Anyway, back to coding...
