Those numbers are on git.git. Obviously 600% is a lot, but 24ms is not.
However, the cost is a factor of the tree size times the number of refs.
For the "homebrew.git" repository stored at GitHub, which has ~28,000
refs (mostly pointing at pull-request tips in refs/pull), the numbers
are much more dramatic:

fbd4a703^         fbd4a703                   HEAD                 
0.50(0.46+0.02)   8.23(8.17+0.06) +1546.0%   0.50(0.48+0.01) +0.0%
