I don't count that as argument. I would need to know why these projects
chose Mercurial over Bazaar and if these reasons are still valid. On

so I read performance was the main reason, and that one is not that
valid anymore. ..
http://opensolaris.org/os/community/tools/scm/bzr-eval/ suggests the same.
