Obviously each project has it's own circumstances, so many projects will use different languages, revision control systems, editors, etc., etc., etc.. If Mercurial works for you, that's great.

For comparison, I've been contributing to the DokuWiki project ( http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:dokuwiki ) for a while and have heard very few complaints about darcs from developers over there. With ~1800 patches, DokuWiki is nearly twice as "big" as the darcs repository previously cited.

I might also note that I ran 'darcs get -v http://allmydata.org/ source/tahoe/trunk'. It was quite verbose, and finished in ~1 minute on ordinary hardware with an ordinary DSL connection. Interactive commands might be slower... but http based gets and pulls seem fast enough to me.
