I haven't had a question at the time of the cited eMail ;-)

This hasn't worked for me:
sr at Klaus:~/Squeak > cvs co -z9 Unix_2.8
co: invalid option -- z
Usage:
cvs checkout [-ANPRcflnps] [-r rev | -D date] [-d dir]
[-j rev1] [-j rev2] [-k kopt] modules...
-A Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts.
-N Don't shorten module paths if -d specified.
-P Prune empty directories.
-R Process directories recursively.
-c "cat" the module database.
-f Force a head revision match if tag/date not found.
-l Local directory only, not recursive
-n Do not run module program (if any).
-p Check out files to standard output (avoids stickiness).
-s Like -c, but include module status.
-r rev Check out revision or tag. (implies -P) (is sticky)
-D date Check out revisions as of date. (implies -P) (is sticky)
-d dir Check out into dir instead of module name.
-k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout.
-j rev Merge in changes made between current revision and rev.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)
But netherless I think that uncompressed files should be compressed
automatically by the protocol/modem software, so the speed difference
shouldn't be very high.

Thanks for the hint.
