Hi,
I've experienced the same problem since I upgraded WinCVS to 1.3b7.
Not only status and diff are slow, but also log (I can't check now, but I
think the same applies to commit). I've been running WinCVS against
different CVS 1.11.1.3 builds (from an early beta until the recent final
version), always with the same problem.
I don't thing it's a communications problem, because WinCVS and CVS are
running both locally on the same machine, and WinCVS consumes 99% of CPU
power (Pentium III 866MHz / 512MB) when executing diff/status/log/etc.
operations.
