Still,
time svn co https://mnemosyne-proj.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mnemosyne-proj/trunk trunk
Checked out revision 715.
CPU times: user 0.00 s, sys: 0.00 s, total: 0.00 s
Wall time: 13.54 s

Wouldn't it be possible to first get the svn data in 1 batch like this, and then do all the required processing locally?
