I am just guessing, but it's probably (surprisingly) because of e.g slow directory traversal API in Go: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/42027 https://github

In my experience the biggest slowdown is on a mac for whatever reason. And yes, probably APFS itself is slower than ext4 which is honestly expected.

Possible - but it could also be some other bottlneck - like spawning subprocesses being faster on Linux. To get more insight one would need to instrument the code and measure which sub-operation is actually faster.
