So, time does go by faster when watching videos, or slower actually.. While watching youtube is not necessarily the worst workaround, we'll try to figure out what might be causing this.
I'll try to reproduce the problem at our offices – possibly with and without youtube, and definitely using Versions vs. the command line. If there's anything weird going on in Versions while exporting I should be able to notice similar differences. My first guess is that somehow, Spotlight feels the urge to start indexing your export during the export, severely getting in the way of disk I/O, and somehow doesn't feel this way during a checkout. But that's just a hunch. One thing we could try is to checkout and export to a location that's inside a folder that's marked as private in Spotlight's preferences.. Have you tried doing an export with the svn command-line client? Thanks for reporting this, I'll let you know if we are able to figure out anything more. - Dirk the Versions team On May 23, 4:15 am, Thinsoldier <thinsold...@gmail.com> wrote: > Yes, I'm sure. > I did some more exports and checkouts > > 1) 4 minutes for the checkout, 26 minutes for the export.
