1. The script has to open a rather large number of files (100,000). 2. Instead of opening all of them, I am trying to only open those files where the file was actually MODIFIED not just accessed within the last 20 minutes.
The implementation logic behind "read" accessed versus "modified" accessed is a little flawed. Why not have the routince that actually make data changes to the files in question mark the md5 checksum of only those that the data has changed (in much the same way as a mirror) -- this way you have a valid target of files from which to peform other tests?
