Resolving deltas: 100% (39752/39752), done. real 0m5.512s user 0m3.168s sys 0m0.720s This was a repeated measurement - at the first measurement times were doubled. The second measurements apparently benefited from the cache on the server. However, it is clear that Gitea gives better results while providing standard output during cloning. Subsequently, I tested cloning the entire repository from Gitea: $ time ./scripts/switch_all_submodules_to_head_and_clean anonymous real 22m6.332s user 10m34.756s sys 0m53.580s Please also try using Gitea instead of the CGit interface. It looks like Gitea could be an advantage!
