Using TCP compression is a fine art.  Finding the right setting based on
network traffic can take quite sometime.  Try other settings, including
turning it off.  The time cost in compressing the traffic may out-weigh
the time savings in network traffic. 

Also, once you are logged in you stay logged in until you specifically
say logout.  CVS keeps a '.cvspass' file on the local machine which
keeps all your login info.  Logging in a second time will just check
against this file.  If your info matches it won't go out to the server
again.
