Hey!
I’m currently doing some performance test with jgit (downloaded today, plain
2.1.0.201209190230-r.sh on command line). It seems that cloning a repository in a RAM disk is orders of magnitudes slower than with native git. The times are as follows (8 sec vs. 4:22 minutes?!?!?):
salxbuild03.salomon.at % time git clone ../wamas5.git/
Cloning into 'wamas5'...
done.

Every single step in the cloning process seems to take a lot of time.
Second thing I noticed: cloning with “../wamas5.git” didn’t work. I got a “fatal: ../wamas5.git/: not found.” I had to pass the absolute path to clone.
Any Ideas?
