here are the purely technical criticisms I have of IPS:
1. it's slow. it was slow when it started, it still is - improvements notwithstanding. it's written in python, so basically it will never operate at a reasonable speed.

While IPS may be slow, I doubt that Python is necessarily to blame. It is likely a design issue. As reason to believe that the problem is not with Python, Mercurial is written in Python and Git is written in compiled C yet Mercurial is demonstrated to perform operations on remote repositories twice as fast.
