Comment (by hinder):
We have git-svn mirrors on http://git.barrywardell.net/. Most of the time spent checking out a new git-svn repository is taken by calling svn once per revision to download the history. We could accelerate this process when using GetComponents by checking to see if there is a mirror available and using that if it is. The final stage would always be a "git svn rebase" in case the mirror was not fully up-to-date.
