With the default settings and no cached visibility for the repo, the hunks should not be expanded, so Magit isn't actually coloring/painting them yet. In this case, the processing of these diffs will be slow regardless of whether they are painted and the CLI "git checkout" suggestion is good, but I think the delayed painting is worth noting because users may not realize that their custom visibility settings are making things slower. -- Kyle
