Brief article on benchmarks of Python repository with leading DVCSen

It looks like they didn't use a shared repository in Bazaar so perhaps 
the results are not that meaningful. Even so I don't think Bazaar 
performed badly - it outdid subversion on all the tests and users are ok 
with subversion's performance.

I think the time Bazaar saves me with its proper support for renaming 
and merging is far more significant than a few seconds performing not so 
frequent commands. The time I spend developing is much greater than the 
time I spend waiting for Bazaar so it's not really a big issue for me. 
Of course, I would welcome any speed improvements!
