Sorry, I found that my first wording was confusing. Let me rephrase.

Saying "it doesn't care about svn:mergeinfo", I meant that it
(--ignore-ancestry option) doesn't involve special cares (walking the
whole target searching for subtree svn:mergeinfo, mixed revisions, and
switched nodes, etc...) which causes the slowdown on normal merge.
