	An Interview with Tom Lord of Arch on Versioning Systems :: OSDir.com :: Open Source, Linux News & Software (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Arch's has proven to be a little off-putting to newbies, but most experienced users think it's at least pretty good.
		If you use arch naively, out of the box, taking no special steps, and you try to work on a very large and/or busy project, you'll run into some bumps in the road, performance-wise.
		For example, with some very limited exceptions, Arch encourages you to commit all the changes you've made to a given tree at once rather than, as in CVS, being able to commit some of these changes.

		High arch, or pes cavus, is an excessively elevated toe-to-heel arch of the foot.
