Maybe the connection is closed only if all apps are terminated. A 
redirection of the input/output to /dev/null could bring help in that 
case.

But I can only talk from my experiences: directly after you enabled the 
CIA bot again, commits were very slow. Even ViewCVS via the web would 
already show all changes, but the "svn commit" command would still wait 
for something. On the next day, commits were suddenly fast again, and I 
thought "oh, maybe it was only a temporary thing with CIA" - but when I 
visited the CIA bot page, I learned that those fast commits weren't 
taken into account.
That looks pretty obvious to me, but it's not a proof either.

Bye,
   Axel.
