PHP reads a file 8 KiB at a time by default. On a disk where every request waits, such as a network or cloud volume, that made reading five times slower: on the test server 5 MiB/s instead of 27 MiB/s. Without PHP's read buffer every read of a blob is one request to the disk. The same for packs on a local location.
