Yes, I think so, as long as you can fit all of them in memory.
The other thing you could
So what would that look like? Is it sufficient to throw every
canonical directory path in a set and test for membership before
traversing down any directory? Or is that even sufficient because you
could arrive at the same location through different paths... I wonder
if you can get something more

Or more generally, all sequences may be infinite unless you know the
backing data has no cycles, or you have some terminating/f
Fair enough.
