This will generate 10000 files in less than a second. They are 0 size,
so just write something into them if you don't wont zero sized files
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
my $file = "/some/where/writeable/a1";
my $j = 0;
for ( my $i = 1 ; $i < 10000 ; $i++ ) {
my $dts = $j++;
open( my $FH, ">", "$file$dts" ) or die "cant open file$dts!";
close $FH;
}
