OpenAI launches Pando backend, cutting median Git push latency by ~80%
OpenAI released Pando, a Git‑compatible backend for its monorepo that handles branches independently and reuses stored packfiles across fetches. The system reduces median push latency by almost 80% and now serves close to a petabyte of Git data daily.
Benchmarks are the company's own; not independently verified.
Why it matters
Pando’s 80% latency reduction suggests product managers should prioritize integrating similar backend optimisations to speed developer workflows.
