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.
