Check the first link. There is useful info about scaling of the compared

revisions very efficiently, while other distributed systems (git,
bazaar-ng) may not do as well.
I've only tried importing Linus' 2.6 tree (*) using the hg mirror and I
can say it's reasonably fast on a DSL line (for 5000 changesets on the
whole tree).
(*) "hg clone http://www.kernel.org/hg/linux-2.6 hg-linux"
