I think the concern is over the static 2x space usage of any WC. For 
typical web hosting space, the cost of disk space is more than the cost of 
bandwidth going to the server for revision control purposes. An alternate 
WC representation that traded space for bandwidth would be nice here. 
(Perhaps one that caches locally the original copy of any file once a 
change is detected, but doesn't store copies of everything.)

(I'm pretty sure this is in the bug tracker somewhere, as I'm sure I've 
seen the issue on the dev list in the past.)
