OK, I finally got some time to inspect the issue. Seems like  
queryLastLog() in Git driver is very expensive. And it is performed on  
every file in a directory.

As far as I know currently git doesn't support retrieving last log  
entries for all folder files. git ls-tree is very similar, but it  
doesn't include last commit author and date. However these limitations  
can be avoided by using something like:

for a in $(ls); do git log --pretty=format:"%h%x09%an%x09%ad%x09$a" -1  
-- "$a"; done
