The terminology thing got me, as did the whole "different philosophy" thing. Particularly as I'd got my head round distributed repos, and had nowhere to put a central repo, so kept forgetting which one of my repos I was designating as the "central" one...
The project was/is huge, in terms of total file size - I can't remember how huge, and I can't check it atm, due to job move chaos. But basically, it was too big for darcs, and I hit some sort of out-of-memory or infinite loop issue. That's why I went for git - my project was huge but not as huge as Linux ;)
