Out of curiosity: Do you use a ZIL SLOG* volume with that setup? I remember cvs operations used to be a lot slower on spinning rust than on SSD.
I'm not using a SLOG. I couldn't be bothered setting one up on my crash and burn systems. It doesn't seem to be too bad, except for when I try and run "rm -rf src".
Both from home (16 MBit DSL) and $WORKPLACE I am frequently running cvs updates through filtering routers (pf(4) here), and basically never see connection issues.
Germany is pretty much the opposite of New Zealand. It's close to everywhere, but its last mile access speeds are a bit infamous.
I'm running some tests on other local clients and against other CVS mirrors in the hope that come up with a better characterisation of the problem than "it doesn't work".
