- 2026-09-30 **Full Linux run** (06:24): table in `docs/benchmarks.md`. oxy matches Git on the first commit (38.5 s against 38.8 s) and beats it on gc (39.7 s against 102.8 s); the store is 324 MB against 295 MB. Everyday commands are still 5 to 15 times slower: most of each is loading the base's history and tree view. A one-file commit no longer reloads the new base for its manifest keys: 3.1 s (from 4.7 s). oxygen#41 (a base index) is proposed and waits for Andy.

The script's own oxy checkout of the first state failed; its hash lacked

    

  
    

      
      538
      +
      
the `#`, and the script is fixed. The time in the table is from running

Commit, one file: its graph keys now come from the state the commit

    

  
    

      
      542
      +
      
extended rather than a reload of the new base (main-eff93613), which

    

  
    

      
      543
      +
      
takes it to 3.05 to 3.27 s; the status after it takes 0.43 s.

What is left for the everyday commands is mostly loading the base's

    

  
    

      
      546
      +
      
history and its tree view (about 1 s of each) and rendering what

    

  
    

      
      547
      +
      
changed. oxygen#41 proposes a base index that would make those reads

    

  
    

      
      548
      +
      
proportional to what changed.
