The problem with performance is not so much ci/co but more diff etc.
The line to the provider is very thin, and also oneway. (we can not dial 
in at the provider, but they can dial at us).

So because of performace reasons, the repo should be at the provider.
But we also want to access the repo, but can not dial in there.

So what to do ? I can only think of: repo a the provider and mirror this
to us, so that we have a read-only copy of the repository.

The problem then comes when WE want to do checkins, because the repo
is not write accessible. (because of the dial restriction).

So I have to solve a problem that is really there ! ;-)

any idea ?

kind regards,
Bernhard.
