Thankyou for investigating this more. I filed

It would be a shame to have this regression in 1.6. It seems like one
practical measure would be to restore the load of the whole index in
this case, and at least see how that compares. This would be a step
back from the kind of index behaviour we generally want, but perhaps
the best we can do for current pack indexes. Perhaps we could do this
through an api that is just a hint, and less specific than
_buffer_all, so that other repositories can just ignore it.
