Hi Ian,

This looks very interesting thanks. I will look in to it
when I need to do some benchmarks.

Is this the tool that you used to create
http://bazaar-vcs.org/Benchmarks

If so are the processed results anywhere? It would be easier
to read them in that form. Also are the git and hg backends
up to reporting the same results for them yet? I would be
interested in how the comparison looks now.

Thanks,

James
