I have tried this command:
lan@lan> time git-clone lan@lan:/home/lan/tmp/git/billing/repo r3
defaulting to local storage area
lan@lan's password:
Packing 204607 objects
Unpacking 204607 objects
Killed by signal 2.) done

real    4m0.874s
user    0m0.013s
sys     0m0.120s

I have killed it at ~ 20%. As I understand it does exactly what ssh git thru 
ssh transport does: git-rev-list |  git-pack | ssh | git-unpack or something 
like this. So it is not faster.
