It seems like for performance reasons, git-stats wants to update the calendar on commit instead of generating it on the fly. git-cal[0] just does this on the fly and works reasonably fast for me. The UI looks very comparable.

Hmm, just installed git-cal and it certainly is adequately fast on my main work repo. But it seems to just be for the current branch? (That seems sensible enough, but also makes it somewhat less useful.)

Added an option to view stats from all branches ( git-cal --all ), but that'll be slower for large repositories

Brill, it's still quite fast on my work repo, and much more useful to me. :)
