Well, we are talking about 50MB which is not that bad.

However there is a point where we should be realistic and just admit 
that you need a sufficiently big machine if you have huge repositories 
to deal with.  Git should be fine serving pull requests with relatively 
little memory usage, but anything else such as the initial repack simply 
require enough RAM to be effective.
