IIRC, TortoiseSVN uses a cache process to speed things up a bit. Could that approach help here? BTW, TortoiseHg slows down our QT app, as a lot of python dlls has to be loaded when opening a file/directory dialog too. (When debugging, it's triple annoying when the C++ debugger loads each python dll and tries to find debugging symbols for it.) Some (optional) detection on the host process name (i.e. explorer.exe or not) could help out in that case.
