Konstantin: Is that time-to-first-byte, overall transfer time
or something to do with POST requests being treated differently?

Yaron: does disabling smart HTTP to rely on only GET transfers
improve things?  Smart HTTP is great for bandwidth reduction but
uses more CPU/memory on the server side, and perhaps
recommending clients do that for big repos is a good thing
anyways for the initial clone.

GIT_SMART_HTTP=0 git clone --mirror ...
