These are extreme times, really. Anything filesystem related will be slow(er) on Windows and there is a fair amount of files being written/ stat'd but it's still _nowhere_ near the times you're reporting (I also work on Windows). This has to be an i/o bottleneck somewhere - git status is basically no-op, see this: >gradlew :gitStatus -Ptask.times=true Aggregate task times (possibly running in parallel!): 0.24 sec. gitStatus So something is off with that setup. I'd try running on Windows directly first, just to rule out WSL quirks. It definitely should be much faster on that hardware... Dawid >
