The enterprise bank I work for needs a business justification to spend resources to figure out if there's a business justification for allowing the installation of WSL. I asked in 2019.
Bouncing between my personal computers and my Windows work computer, what they've done to make git so slow... it makes me sad. On a brand new developer workstation, the git-prompt invocation in PS1 takes over a second to complete.
Developers who never used git before don't like it and I understand why. It's like a scene from Harrison Bergeron, like Git Bash has heavy objects strapped to it to make it at least as slow as everything else.

- michaelsbradley 5y agoIt’s owing to the high number of syscalls not being a big drag on Linux, etc. while causing noticeable slowdowns on top of Windows’ architecture/filesystem... something like that. A Microsoft engineer did a good writeup on it several years ago, if I remember correctly. I’ll try to find a link.
