Benchmark the checksum calculation for a repository
Description
In gitlab-org/gitlab-ee#4469 we are investigating how to ensure repository on the secondary matches the repository on the primary. In this issue, we'll focus on benchmarking the checksum calculation for large repositories.
With this benchmark, we will be able to know how often we the checksum can be updated. Ideally, we'd want the checksum to be updated after each push.
Repositories:
The following repositories should be used in the benchmark:
Proposal:
The algorithm to calculate the checksum should be something based on https://githubengineering.com/stretching-spokes/.
