If you are working on the giant mess that is the gits's history, I agree. If it is your standard robot code, then it it like comparing driving 40mph and 39.9mph (not noticeable)

For any robot purpose, hg is just as fast as git on linux. I think its also more of a percieved speed: git is c, which is fast, while hg is python, which is slower. However, its not very noticeable today (it may have been a few years ago though), due to some C code, and optimizations
