I assume you mean bytearray not bytes (which isn't mutable).

They can be very large which would mean lots of memory copies. That's an 
entirely subjective opinion, nobody has done any measurements.

Besides as QByteArray implements the buffer and sequence protocols they 
are prety interchangeable anyway.
