I never use M-x cvs-examine.  I use C-u C-x C-f foo/bar/CVS (or
equivalently M-x cvs-quickdir) which is much quicker.

Probably vc-directory does something similar to cvs-quickdir (i.e. it
doesn't contact the repository).

VC was based on model where all operations are done on a single file.
It's been extended since, but only at a few spots (mostly the code that
populates vc-directory).
