i agree jay, the bark based mix that drains less well is actually soil-less and 60% bark and molar clay the water puddles on the surface for like 10 seconds before it drains away whereas the soil mix (20% topsoil, 20% compost, 30% peat 30% perlite) drains much faster.
i agree that you need a strong drainage component in pots and that is one thing that perlite is good for, as well as helping to dilute what otherwise would be a soil too rich for weed imo.
