If sha1 verification in the index file can now be optionally skipped,
I wonder if you would have faster startup time by storing hashes in
the index as an extension. I have never tried it (though I planned to
have some sort of caching for this) but I would guess loading hashes
would cost less than 0.27 seconds, hopefully closer to 0.05 seconds.
