By the way, which version of gitweb did you use (shortened sha1 of commit, or result of git-describe)? I'm interested if it is before or after Robert Fitzsimons patches which replaced 101 forks in log-like views with 1 fork, which I think affects gitweb performance a lot.

The page which is optimized is summary view, if you use projects_list and not projectroot directory...
