One thing that we're not taking advantage of on code.python.org for  
Bazaar is "stacked branches".  This is basically an indirection  
technique that doesn't require a full revision history download to get  
started.  Stacked branches greatly improve performance for the initial  
pull and push, and reduces disk usage on the server.

When the new machine is in place, I'll make sure we provide stacked  
branches for the MvL Experiment.
