I found CVS performance acceptable. The website, however, is typically
slow. The problem, I think, is not so much the actual speed of the
server or the line, but that it looks like the pages are highly
complex and not cached (and neither are the images?) in any way. It's
bad when I can see Firefox rendering each element individually.
