The fetch no longer seems to suffer from the large regression, it is now faster (~7m) than 1.7.7 (which was +15m). As a quick note, if I comment out the invalidate_cached_refs() call in write_ref_sha1() on line 2065 (on top of 9944c7), it is still much faster, only ~2m. Perhaps growing the array on the fly with many refs is still be too inefficient? -Martin -- Employee of Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. which is a member of Code Aurora Forum
