I've found that committing to siesta is much faster. But siesta is a much
smaller project, and the server is not 6000 miles away.

Given that currently you're the only committer, I don't think that it
matters what you use. IIRC we can already mirror p4 into svn realtime,
so it seems that keeping the master in p4 and then letting people access
it via anonymous svn would work. Also, as I understand it svn can import
p4 with all the change metadata, so it would be possible to switch over to
svn without loss in the future if its handling of large projects improves.
