Gives some nice results for the "rev-list --all --objects" test on the gentoo repo says (with the old pack): | With my patch | With your patch on top -----|---------------|----------------------- VSZ | 1667952 | 1319324 RSS | 1388408 | 1126080 time | 1:48.99 | 1:42.24 Testing a full repack, it feels slower during the "Compressing objects" part, but I don't have any hard numbers on that, and maybe I've just been more patient the last week, when I did the first repack on that repo. I can just tell that it took about 13 minutes for the "Compressing objects" part, and 18 minutes in total, on my Core 2 Quad 2.83GHz with 4G of RAM. The new pack is slightly worse than the old one (window=250, --depth=250): Old: 759662467 New: 759720234 But that's seems totally negligible, and at least the performance of the (stupid) rev-list test is not affected by the different pack layout.
