No. I would never say that you have to run for-each-ref for each ref. 
That's plain stupid.

BTW I take some satisfaction in that you finally agreed (in another email) 
that some post-creation caching is necessary.

I would be even more satisfied if you finally agreed that it is a good 
practice to separate conceptually different things, and not continued ad 
infinitum (and ad nauseam) arguing that .git/info/refs should serve dumb 
transports, and gitweb, and eventually bring peace to everybody on this 
planet.

Ciao,
