git status takes 30 seconds on Windows 7. Here are some stats:
git ls-files | wc -l

git ls-files -o | wc -l
4

$ git diff --name-only | xargs du -chs
68K     update_import_contacts.php
68K     total

What can I do??? This is so slow it is unbearable.
By the way i've done git gc several times and nothing changed.

You can try "status -uno" to skip showing untracked files (and may be
do without -uno before commit so you don't miss files). You may also
try core.ignoreStat (but I think it's not very convenient to use)
