For "repack -ad", generally we don't spend that much time on deltas. It depends what your pre-repack state is, of course, but I find that most of the time goes to "counting objects". With "-adf", I would guess that we easily spend something like 95% of the time on compressing for a large repository (just try "repack -adf" on the kernel; even with 8 cores it's a half hour or more on my machine, versus about 25 seconds to count the objects). So I think you could potentially get a lot of speedup for the "-adf" case (and likewise "git gc --aggressive"). -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
