We found neon linked against libxml2-2.6.7 slows down large svn checkouts, a 18mb file in this case (100 seconds vs. 6 seconds). libxml2-2.6.19 seems to fix that. We just have to decide what to do now for SLES9, either use expat for neon or upgrade libxml2. _______________________________________________ neon mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.webdav.org/mailman/listinfo/neon
