Dreamweaver CS5.5 hangs when synchronizing files

Question

I work with a non-profit that has just bought two CS5.5 Design Premium licenses. One of our first tasks is to manage an organizational website in Dreamweaver CS5.5
We need both users to be able to do updates, one on a Mac (me), and the other user on a PC in a different office.
Attempt 1: Use the Subversion features, to allow collaboration and versioning. Hmmm — after much research it appears setting this is not meant for anyone but Unix power users.
Attempt 2: Use the simpler "Synchronize" and "Check In/Out" features. Trouble here too, and many hours now down the drain. It's a fairly large site. Dreamweaver hangs almost immediately on trying to mark a long list of files as already synchronized, while using roughly 100% of a CPU.
This should be a simple startup task — set up two users' copies of the site as synchronized with the server version, so we can safely begin checking files in and out and making changes from two locations.
Can anyone give me guidance on how to get this to work?
