Thank you Ken.
That sounds really promising. I will tell you about the results. With the
old and the new method. Thanks!

Oggetto: Re: Download fileSystem data

Have you profiled your code to see what calls exactly are taking the most
time? I have a feeling it's these:

    isFilePackageAtPath
    kLSItemInfoIsInvisible
    kFSNodeLockedMask
    kFSCatInfoCreateDate
    kFSCatInfoContentMod
    kFSCatInfoBackupDate
    kFSCatInfoAccessDate

And parsing "ls" output won't get you these (besides, parsing "ls" is a
dirty hack anyway). You probably want to try dropping down to
CFURLEnumerator and asking it to prefetch the desired attributes. Or, if
you're targeting pre-10.6 then FSGetCatalogInfoBulk().
