Come on, anyone that has even unzipped Linux-centric stuff on Windows knows how slow individual file operations are compared to Mac or Linux.
It's very common knowledge that on Windows you will get terrible performance if you have many many small files.
I don't know why Microsoft doesn't fix that. Maybe they can't for compatibility reasons or something. But that's the way it is, and any software that wants to run well on Windows needs to deal with it by using fewer bigger files.
