Ross Lagerwall <rosslagerw...@gmail.com> added the comment: This looks like the kind of optimization that depends hugely on what kernel you're using. Maybe on FreeBSD/Solaris/whatever, standard os.walk() is faster?
If this micro-optimization were to be accepted, someone would have to be keen enough to test it is different ways on many different versions of every platform to conclusively prove that it is faster in general. ---------- nosy: +rosslagerwall _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15200> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
