bug#67672: EMACS - Slow opening files

["Moore, Rider" <rmoore@cooley.com>]

Exactly right,  some of those repositories have millions of files within and are 100s of GB in size.  The largest is 1.3 TB.

Thanks,

Yes, it does.  Are you saying that the files that are slow to open are under Git or Mercurial, and the respective repositories are on the Truecrypt volumes?
