I think that situation is a bit unrealistic.

Again, unrealistic.

As I said before, cvs really isn't designed for revisioning *very large*
binary files... when dealing with very large files (like your iso images)
I'd say you should look more into an archive management system than a
[source code] revision management system.

Perhaps you could explain more of the _why_ you need to commit *very large*
binaries into a cvs repository.
