git-status got a 1.6X speed-up, and git-commit on a single file got a 2.5X

The slight slowdown might be noise in the measurements (for example, just 
IO differences due to layout changes). Did you run it multiple times both 
ways to see how stable the numbers are? The changes really shouldn't have 
any visible slowdown, ever.

(Of course, it may be that something else changed, or simply things like 
code layout changed cachelines etc, so small performance differences can 
be due to any number of other factors too).
