It looks as if this TradeCapture.iws file was definitely the
problem. We had previously been using CVS and had added this file to
our .cvsignore file. I'm new to SVN, but I just figured out how to
set a property on our IDE directory to ignore the TradeCapture.iws
file. Now, when I interact with the subversion server, everything
seems to be very snappy. None the less, it does seem like this might
be a bug in IDEA. I would expect IDEA to handle files like these a
little more gracefully.
