Sure, okay, thanks. (In my bzr mindset I didn't realize that "git bzr" just elegantly translated to "git-bzr".)

I'm currently attempting to convert those 100k revisions from the emacs repository, averaging 5.5min/1000 revisions. Judging from CPU load (if that's a valid thing to do), I see a 9:1 distribution of the workload (bzr, reading, vs. git, writing).

Thanks for helping me out with this so far.
