http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/ The page has a lot of subdirectories (nearly 26000) The server is 1.6.12. Using client 1.6.17 (built by CollabNet, 32-bit, on Windows) it printed the first line in 10 seconds, and never printed the rest. I waited for ~1 minute. (Ctrl+C did not help, I had to unplug the network cable) Using client 1.7.2 (from TortoiseSVN, 32-bit, on Windows) the result is the same: the first line in ~10 seconds, the rest of data - ~never. 1.6.17: Removing "--depth" option does not change anything. 1.6.17: Removing "-v" the result appears in ~15 seconds and then takes ~10 seconds to print the listing to the console. I am using neon in both cases. Best regards, Konstantin Kolinko
