Some relative svn externals takes very long time

[Joakim Tjernlund <jo...@transmode.se>]

Hi

We have a repo with lots of svn:externals that looks like this
 ^tags/x/y z
Each time one executes a svn up or svn status it takes a very long time
to complete. The reason is that for each such external a new svnserve if
started on the server.
The ^tags/x/y externals are relative to the repo so I wonder
if it is possible to follow these externals within the same
svnserve process instead?
