We've been seeing a fair amount of hg timeouts recently, I'm concerned that this might make things worse...

Hal, how do you feel if we bump chunks from 3 to 6 (2 branches, 4 platforms)? Will it impact hg.m.o?

We are seeing and tracking those and making headway, so I don't think increasing the chunking will hurt.

It would help to understand "recently" as there have been "recent" improvements, such as
 2015-06-03 bug 1169656 - upgrade to 3.4.1
 2015-06-09 bug 1172739 comment 8 (2 yr old hg bug found, worked around)

Will all the fancy new reporting, it'd be awesome if some data on 500's could be collected.
