You can at least limit the backends Emacs is looking for by setting
"vc-handled-backends". I did this in my .emacs as soon as I learned
that Emacs otherwise scans for 6(?) possible backends each time you
open a file!

(setq vc-handled-backends '(SVN Git))

...since I have GIT and Subversion installed on my machine.

HTH,
