Comment 4 for bug 369823

Just reproduced this. It looks like this particular code path triggers some inefficiencies in the file id generation code. ("bzr log" without arguments should be quick)

For now, you may be better of creating a bzr branch of the repository and using "bzr log" in that rather than working in a svn working copy. This is relatively fast, here at least:

$ bzr branch http://svn.python.org/projects/peps/trunk peps.bzr
$ cd peps.bzr
$ bzr log pep-0345.txt
