Mercurial is too slow. Even with chg common commands like `hg status` may take hundreds of milliseconds. JJ is fast. Internally `jj log` taking more than 500ms

- yegle 1mo agoWell I did not answer your second part of the question, only the first part of comparing Mercurial vs Git. Now to the second part: I think speed still plays a role back when Bitbucket and Google Code provides Mercurial hosting and people were comparing Mercurial with Git. Eventually GitHub won the competition, so then we kinda stuck with Git.
