Update, I did a wireshark network packet trace on a checkout from tortoiseSVN. 10K transfered in about 5 seconds. is there someone at VisualSVN I can forward the trace to? I can't tell if it's a VisualSVN problem or a Tortoise problem.
looks like the total time here was 3.784 seconds, but only 3/10 of a second is transfering file data - the rest appears to be some "Property finding" thats going on - it goes through the property find stage twice.
