I'm not at all interested in this topic, but in the time it took the two of you to write your emails, I did this:

  $ cd linux-2.6

  $ time git verify-pack \
      .git/objects/pack/pack-36c50f6082df404c26a699f2702946e0cce6208f.idx
  real    2m37.338s
  user    2m35.874s
  sys     0m1.348s

  $ time git index-pack --verify \
      .git/objects/pack/pack-36c50f6082df404c26a699f2702946e0cce6208f.pack
  real    1m37.208s
  user    1m36.106s
  sys     0m1.048s

OK, with the CPU time it probably took longer than your emails. But I ate some ice cream while it computed. :)
