I gain having my local changes be in a "scratchpad" repsitory, which I can discard at will without requiring a re-fetch of the whole repository from the mirror server, which takes a loooong time and (apparently) puts significant load on that server. As Antoine noted, hg shares the disk space via hard links where possible; where not, what's a few hundred megabytes, more or less?
