Mercurial beats git in a fair bechmark on a large repository by now. As far as I know, no other DVCS received similar dedicated optimizations.

(Microsoft worked around git by shimming a fake file system driver below the local repository to make it scale enouth to cover the Windows codebase. It's all Windows exclusive and not part of git, so it doesn't really count).
