[Cvsnt] performance

So here is what I figured out today....

I was getting much better performance than anyone else in our group. Upon
some digging I found that the box was set to use domain passwords. This was
a configuration error as the box sits in our dmz and should be using local
accounts. We made the change and voila, what took 14 minutes took 90
seconds.

An interesting side note. My performance appears to be better because I used
the same password on my domain account as I used on the local account. For
those people who had seperate passwords, they were getting 1/2 the
performance I was.

Lesson for the day: check the config when you move the box from the LAN to
the DMZ.

Thanks for the reply Tony...
