Is there > something special being written for linux on GIT code ? On Linux (and any platform that supports pthreads), Git will do the lstat() operations to refresh the index in parallel. See the core.preloadIndex option (which I think defaults to true). If you have a very high-latency lstat() and your build does not have pthread support, that could be a significant difference. That might be worth exploring. -Peff
