As I've just mentioned in another thread, repositories converted via
bzr-svn use a different scheme for revision ids to what Bazaar does by
default, leading to a different sized repo than that converted by other
means. I'm yet to measure the difference myself so I'd be interested in
seeing some numbers if anyone has them.
