I didn't know about fscache, but I'll definitely give it a try. Is there a reason it is not turned on by default in Git for Windows?

[PATCH] environment: enable core.preloadindex by default
There is consensus that the default should change because it will benefit nearly all users (some just a little, but some a lot). See [1] and replies.
