That'll slow it down. You also need a beefy CPU to process a file that big. Make sure your ethernet is running at at least 100MB (preferably gigabit if you're shifting files that big regularly) as any network delay on a file that big will be significant. You should be able to get it down to about 20-30 minutes, but really version control systems aren't designed for things that big - they have to process the file to store it, and any processing rapidly builds up - a checkout of the HEAD revision is pretty efficient and is going be within usability. A checkout of a non-HEAD revision is going to take much longer. Tony
