It's probably the effect of internal database fragmentation, coupled
with file system fragementation:

monotone.db: 8686 extents found, perfection would be 1 extent

Running VACUUM seems to help quite a bit, defragmenting the file at
the file system level doesn't make such a big difference.

(But this is for reading the certs before pull.  I didn't notice soon
enough that this thread is about push performance.)
