"generaldelta" is marked as "experimental". Is it wise to activate?.

In fact Mercurial 1.9 dropped "experimental" 'parentdelta', so
"experimental" actually is... quite experimental and not garanteed:).

And yes, I have read your posts to HG development mailinglist in May,
and I have big hopes for "generaldelta" or something close to it. But I
will wait until is "official" (luckily activate per default for new
repositories/network clones).
