As always, you are right and enlightened others with your
superiour intelligence enough to produce code for you so that
you do not have to write yourself ;-).
Would something like this suit your taste?
The "rev-list org.eclipse.debug.ui/" test that took 16-17
seconds takes 9 seconds with this patch. Running with a
diffrent pathspec "org.apache.ant/" obviously makes it go a lot
faster (15sec vs 7sec).

[PATCH] Teach tree_entry_interesting() that the tree entries are sorted.
When we are looking at a tree entry with pathspecs, if all the
pathspecs sort strictly earlier than the entry we are currently
looking at, there is no way later entries in the same tree would
match out pathspecs, because the entries are sorted.
