They are about different things, and as such, not directly comparable.

cvsvs is a tool for gatewaying CVS and Arch. It does a lot more than
just mirror cvs tree in arch. It can guess boundaries of individual cvs
commits and other things. The arch archive can be exact copy of the cvs
histroy, if you want to.

tla_load_dirs, on the other hand, is about creating arch revisions from
non-arch sources. It does only one things -- "make this tree a next
revision on that version, trying to identify renames". But it does not
use cvs -- it will happily create revisions from release tarballs.
