Oh, btw, I wasn't able to apply your series from the list on top of en/ort-perf-batch-14 (there are some problems in patch 4, and "am -3" says my clone of git.git is missing some of the pre-image sha1s). I fetched ort-perf-batch-15 from https://github.com/newren/git and timed that, which I imagine is the same. But you may need to tweak the patches so that Junio can pick them up. -Peff
