Ever imported a 120MB source tree to a CVS server at SourceForge?
It takes more than 3 hours...  However, I _can_ schedule it for
sometime between 6pm and 8am.

And considering that I'm usually asleep or at work between 8am and
6pm, it's not much of a limit for me.

And the don't actually kick you off at 8:00am, they just charge you
more, so the user gets to decide.

In any case, I haven't been kicked off yet.  (And I _don't_ actually
use it 68 hours a weekend...)

So, _I_ am that sort of person...
