interesting. i'm on mac; i'll have to give it another try. also we might just have different ideas of "too slow"; for common operations, anything more than instant is basically too slow. :-)

On macOS it helps to use Emacs 26.1 (unreleased but very solid) or to use a build with a backport of the vfork patch. For more information see https://magit.vc/manual/magit/MacOS-Performance.html.
I also plan to make Magit faster across all platforms.
very cool to hear that performance is a focus area!
