Thanks for the quick turnaround.  Unfortunately, I have some bad news.
With this patch, I get the following:

$ /usr/bin/time -f 'MaxRSS:%M Time:%e' git gc --aggressive
Enumerating objects: 4460703, done.
Counting objects: 100% (4460703/4460703), done.

It looks like this comes after it deleted the old packs, so running
git fsck afterwards prints lots of errors.  Just in case they're
helpful at all, there are 26 "error: failed to unpack compressed delta
at offset..." messages, 26 "error: cannot unpack ... from ... at
offset ..." messages, 17 "error: failed to read delta base object..."
messages, 7 "broken link from ... to ..." messages, four missing
blobs, and three missing trees.

(This was run on a copy of the repo, so no harm done; I can still use
the original.)
