Another piece in the puzzle:
I have also tested running against my own machine as the server, both
WinCvs and CVSNT thus are on the same machine. Should be the fastest
connection really. Using :ntserver: protocol here too:

Status on a file:
1.5 s via the GUI button
13 s if entered on the WinCvs command window
0 s if entered on a command prompt in sandbox

Diff on a file:
13 s via WinCvs GUI until ExamDiff shows up
17 s via WinCvs command window
0 s if entered on the command prompt in sandbox

There definitely is a BIG problem in the way WinCvs handles these
commands!!!
