I just checked doing a HEAD request on squeaksource (which works but is far from being optimal...) on the massive Pharo repos (9000 files)

list: ~6.5 sec get: ~6.5 sec head: ~4.5 sec
clearly faster! how about adding additional HEAD support?
You are using a slow reference system, I can be faster: [ ZnEasy get: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents/Zinc-HTTP-SvenVanCaekenberghe.261.mcz' ] timeToRun. 454 [ ZnEasy head: 'http://mc.stfx.eu/ZincHTTPComponents/Zinc-HTTP-SvenVanCaekenberghe.261.mcz' ] timeToRun. 92 What I mean is, the server is another problem than the client side.
