You could try to upgrade. There have been some performance
improvements since that.

Second thing to do, if not already done: Use a revision library.

Another optimization: use "tla get --link". Be warned: This is a
dangerous optimization. Make sure you've read all the docs before
using it on important projects.

And a few things you should know: tla does most of the work on the
client. If you compare tla and CVS, CVS may beat tla on the client,
but the server load and the bandwidth consumption are ridiculously
small in the case of tla.
