Hi Pieter,

I really like the new staging functionality, but I am also having some
pretty serious performance problems 0.7 on large projects (LLVM &
clang in this case). Very frequently when I am working in the commit
window I get unusably-slow hangs (usually after it says "refreshing
index").

Is anyone else seeing this? What more information can I provide?

Thanks,
 - Daniel
