In our tests with large repositories, we noticed a serious regression of the performance of git rebase when using the built-in vs the shell script version. It boils down to an incorrect conversion of a git checkout -q: instead of using a twoway_merge as git checkout does, we used a oneway_merge as git reset does. The latter, however, calls lstat() on all files listed in the index, while the former essentially looks only at the files that are different between the given two revisions. Let's reinstate the original behavior by introducing a flag to the reset_head() function to indicate whether we want to emulate reset --hard (in which case we use the oneway_merge, otherwise we use twoway_merge).
