I was thinking that maybe 'git > blame' would also be slightly faster on hg, but I really don't know. hg (and git) store binary deltas. AFAIK neither attempts to use those to produce output for blame, diff, etc. (git's deltas may well be slightly different from mercurial's, in that git's can be deltas with respect to something arbitrary so even if they had a suitable line-based format they'd be useless for diff, blame.) Similarly for the other major systems, with the exception of (I think) bzr and darcs. (I don't know how bzr or darcs actually work, but IIRC they both have line-based storage that in principle might be usable in computing blame and diff.)
