Well, if it is just process spawn overhead, 'bzr shell' should do a very
good job. It basically puts you in a customized shell, which knows about
bzr commands. So you can do stuff like

'bzr shell'

> status
> log

Rather than doing all of those as

bzr status
bzr log
bzr commit

It also supports intelligent auto-completion (where possible).


My 'bzr service' plugin seems to work just fine with the latest bzr.dev.
While it has some security holes, from a functional perspective, it
seems to work pretty well.
