Counting objects is a very long operation in our Gerrit repository, it's still unclear exactly why but we have the tools to deeply analyze stack traces from Gerrit and we can probably work with upstream on this.

Do note that the Gerrit instance currently run on shitty hardware and that's on purpose, if we can make it reasonably fast there, it means that on proper U.2 NVMe, it will be sweet even for a large amount of users.
