I timed it on macOS, which (as you know) I don't use for daily
development, but it's a useful testbed from time to time.

On your branch, 'git check-attr -a' took 193.4ms with O_NOFOLLOW, and
245.3ms without. After touching every .gitattributes file, those numbers
shot up to 340.9ms and 346.6ms, respectively.

(All numbers on linux.git, of course).

There isn't an apples-to-apples comparison between my numbers and yours
(since my laptop is much slower than yours), but the relative numbers
are quite clear that only doing a single syscall is worth it in the
non-pathological case.

Thanks,
Taylor
