Ironically, whenever I've talked to Perforce users their big complaint
seems to be scalability, p4 really falls down with many clients that
have large working copies, due to the amount of state it needs to keep
in memory on the server.

As for binary diffing being a performance problem for svn, I think
they're kind of stretching there...
