So since much of the load appears to be I/O bound, I did "gc --aggressive" on the Emacs repository I had been testing with, reducing repository size to about a quarter. The performance of "git blame" has become considerably worse by that. I suppose that the time is dominated by unpacking the repository now: half of the run time is "system", and I am using an SSD disk. For rotary disks, the actual improvements will likely be even less. So it would seem that for further improvements to git-blame, I'll have to work on the core git mechanisms and/or let git-blame do smart caching to avoid redundant data accesses. Very disappointing. I don't have the time to rewrite the core of git. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
