Re^2: Perl Data Transfer Rate

I haven't used SVN much but if it is anything like ClearCase then the larger the file is, the longer the checkout takes. I have a file that is roughly 1.5G and it takes between 20 and 30 minutes to check it out with ClearCase. :(

Well, I'm fairly confident that you don't have a single 1.5Gb file of source code, so you may want to reconsider the usefulness of putting that file in any kind of source control system. FTR: adding large blobs into SVN will give you similar results. "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]

It's a tarball of third party software. I agree with you however the powers that be want even third party software to be revision controlled.	[reply]

The time I am trying to calculate is to fix some major performance issues on project migrations. So I need to calculate the list of files on checkout and the time they took and kb/sec. Still trying to find a light there. I know Tortoise SVN gives this after the checkout or export is done. I am not able to get it through any of the solutions mentioned above in my script.	[reply]
