I don't think we can really speed up the import itself significantly.
The Subversion protocol is what it is, it wasn't made for fetching all
of the revisions in a repository but rather for fetching just a single
revision.

The performance I'm getting here (at least for the first 300 revisions
or so) seems to be about one revision per second. Is that consistent
with what you are seeing?

There are two other things we should be able to do though:

 * allow resuming the clone operation if it is interrupted
 * only fetch the last X revisions (stacked branch, history
horizon, ...)

Cheers,
