Personally I found, when pulling large repositories from svn over a very 
flaky network with a strange firewall set-up, that picking some number 
that gave me the chunks that I was happy with and doing:

R = 1
while not /hg says no such rev/:
    R += ChunkTo
    hg pull -r R
hg pull

If you are chunking to a moderate size you are likely to hit at random 
most reasonable size branches - the final pull should get the leftovers.
