Simple performance test

Hi,

Just thought people may be interested in this quick test I did comparing 
svn and bzr. I converted a (large) project in subversion to bzr using 
tailor. To branch this in bzr and create the working tree took exactly 1 
minute but to checkout using subversion took 1m46 secs. Bzr was using a 
shared repository so it did not need to fetch all of the revisions over 
the network so this would be expected... it's just a nice benefit that 
comes from moving to a distributed VCS.
