+While I still need to investigate if there is really a reversion here,
+it's worth noting that you can probably avoid the slow speed by running:
+
+git config filter.annex.process 'git-annex filter-process'
+
+That needs a current daily build of git-annex, the feature will also be in
+the next release.

+Right, annex.supportunlocked avoids all these performance considerations.
+
+But, it seems possible that enabling filter-process will speed it up enough
+to not need annex.supportunlocked. I'd be interested to know if that works
+for you.

+Thanks @jkniiv, that's good to hear. That is exactly the results I would
+have hoped for for a repository like yours. To speed up the checkout
+of the annexed files in your case will need improvements to git,
+probably. But the crucial thing is it's not gotten worse, and the other
+checkout improved a lot.
+
+I would be curious how you find `git add`'s performance now, if you ever
+use that to add large annexed files.
