FWIV, I tried an experiment with full imported SVN (up to r1910) with
the following results:

1. Full repository checkout (including history going back to rev 0):

 bzr branch lp:~eudoxos/yade/trunk-from-svn

Downloads about 30MB, is limited only by downlink throughput. Takes 24MB
on hdd. Diff without changes is instantaneous.

2. Lightweight checkout

 bzr branch --lightweight lp:~eudoxos/yade/trunk-from-svn

Downloads about 4 MB, takes 10MB on the disk. Diff takes about 25s on my
connection then.
