My git-pulling script (git-1.4.2) seems to have got quite a bit slower
since the post-2.6.23 patchflood.  I just did a bit of poking and it's
git-merge which is taking most of the time.

That's odd. If it had been the remote fetching it would have been
understandable. Is this also happening with more recent gits? I know there
are some significant performance-improvements in 1.5.3.4 (or below).

1.5.0 is no faster, but 1.5.3 appears to be seven times quicker.  Neato.
