Worth a try :-)
BTW, I'd be curious to see how much 32 cores can speed up packing. By default, git-repack autodetects the number of CPUs and spawns threads accordingly, so it shouldn't require any tuning. You just need a recent version of git implementing this optimization. -- // Bernie Innocenti - http://codewiz.org/ \X/ Sugar Labs - http://sugarlabs.org/
