I *certainly* don't speak for core, but anoncvs is a *huge*
networking/CPU load, much more than CVSup and the CPU load is *much*
higher than SUP (though the network load can be better than SUP).

CVSup is really the solution for people who want to do local changes.
Granted, the CVS tree is pretty large, but since disk space is fairly
cheap (except on laptops ;( ), people doing local development should get
the CVS tree.  Note that you don't have to get *everything*, simply the
base stuff plus whatever parts of the tree you are working on.  You may
also need to get the 'contrib' tree, since the addition of it broke the
nice separation of each part of the tree from one-another.
