I like Darcs, and for the meantime I will be keeping my Darcs
repositories (and not immediately convert say to git).  However,
I've really started to see slowdown on my repositories that get a
lot of commits.  I've gotten a bit impatient with the
sluggishness.

There's also something that just feels right about Git to me.
Most of the things I found very appealing with Darcs are in Git
as well, or can be accomplished in different but similar ways.
And a few of the Git workflows, although not exactly simpler, feel
much more natural.

I can't speek to SVN directly because it requires connected work,
and for me that was a deal-breaker in a SCM.  I want to be able
to grab my work onto a laptop and be able to commit at will
without worrying about a network connection.  Both Darcs and Git
support that kind of model.
