Although checkout/update are probably the normal use cases which use the 
bulk of the bandwidth - along with commit where svn can send diffs and cvs 
needs to upload the whole changed file - svn log appears to receive logs 
from the server in uncompressed form, which can be large for logs of e.g. 
the whole gcc/ directory.  I'm sure those people developing GCC on dialup 
would be glad of compression even for much smaller logs.
