Hi Johannes, I am working with Git for Windows right now and it is dramatically slower than on OS X. I executed "time git status" on Windows and OS X with the same repository and the following results:
## Windows git version 2.6.3.windows.1 (with enabled experimental flag on install): real 0m1.327s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.015s ## OS X git version 2.4.9 (Apple Git-60): git status 0.06s user 0.13s system 102% cpu 0.186 total Initially it was even slower on Windows (~1.6s). According to [1] I used the following settings to make it faster: $ git config --global core.preloadindex true $ git config --global core.fscache true Is this behavior normal/expected? If it is not normal, how would you debug the issue? How can I find out why it is so slow? My user drive is not on a net share and the machine has a SSD.
