900ms is fishy. Creating the revidx should not take that long. But if it is...

Colby is probably right that a cached copy of the revidx would help.
Or update the .idx format to have two additional sections that stores
the length of each packed object and the delta base of each packed
object, allowing pack-objects to avoid creating the revidx. This would
be an additional ~8 bytes per object, so ~19.8M for the Linux kernel
(given ~2.6M objects).
