I was having a similar experience, well over 300 directories, and we
apply tags daily (non branching at least).

We are running local mode on NT.

We recently 're-org'd the repository, by doing a checkout of the end of
the old project, and importing that as an entirely new top-level.  It
worked great.

All cvs operations are MUCH faster now.  We got rid of a lot of empty
directories, took the oportunity to rearrange some of the sources to
match their current usage, instead of what was designed over 2 years ago
and then changed many times.  Just about all of the developers have been
very happy with the new repos.
