Realistically, the only non-awful choice other than git would be Mercurial.
As you say, bzr is slow, and it is deeply confused about whether its unit
of work is a repository or a detached branch.
I prefer the UI of Mercurial myself, but have made my peace with git's
overwhelming victory in the mindhare war. I agree, though perhaps
more reluctantly than you, that git would be the better choice
overall.
I have done large CVS and Subversion conversions to both git and
Mercurial. I could do this one, too. For a look at procedure, see
