- ease of setting up a netsync server - I can write bots to apply test-result certs, and use monotone-viz to look at the status of the tree over time - the database is a single file that can easily be shared with multiple workspaces - clean conceptual model: certs, attributes - a tag doesn't create a new revision - monotone will find bad drive controllers - supports strong partitioning of projects (via merge_into_dir) - simple to automate with the list goes on. I've got ~1100 branches with ~100k revisions, ~780k of files, with 20GiB of databases spread out over 2 clusters of 3 machines each. --Jack -- Jack (John) Cummings http://mudshark.org/ PGP fingerprint: F18B 13A3 6D06 D48A 598D 42EA 3D53 BDC8 7917 F802
