I applied these 3 patches and it indeed improves things dramatically. Thanks Peff, you are awesome!!! The synthetic test case (but sorted), now comes in at around 15s. The more important real world case (for us), fetching from my production server, which took around 12mins previously, now takes around 30s (I think the extra time is now spent on the Gerrit server, but I will investigate that a bit more)! That is very significant and should make many workflows much more efficient. +1 for merging this. :) Again, thanks, -Martin Note, I tested git-next 1.8.3.2.883.g27cfd27 to be sure that it is still problematic without this patch, it is (running for 10mins now without completing). -- The Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. is a member of Code Aurora Forum, hosted by The Linux Foundation -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
