Sorry, but not really. The patch is wrong and the measurement was flawed. It was doing unnecessarily more work in git-apply, which made git-write-tree a no-op, and I was measuring only git-write-tree. The following goes on top of the series to remove that unnecessary work from git-apply. Unfortunately this makes the overall combination a bit slower than before X-<. But I have not optimized cache-tree.c for speed; for example, its subtree lists are not even sorted. Once that is done we may get decent speedups from the combo. --- diff --git a/apply.c b/apply.c index 5fa2c1e..e283df3 100644 --- a/apply.c +++ b/apply.c @@ -1935,8 +1935,6 @@ static int apply_patch(int fd, const cha active_cache_sha1) || commit_index_file(&cache_file)) die("Unable to write new cachefile"); - cache_tree_update(active_cache_tree, - active_cache, active_nr, 1); write_cache_tree(active_cache_sha1, active_cache_tree); } - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
