In a directory with >2000 files to interate over, adding a UDSEntry for every file to interate over, we could have a small improvement, maybe not so negligibly small. Improving all loops like this, we can get a speedup. >That should be sufficient. You could also probably get a CVS account to do >your changes yourself if you're willing to work more on this. Well, I took this as a Junior Job, really. This type of "bugfix" makes a newbie (like me) be more familiar with the code to make more deeper changes in the future. How can I get a CVS account and start the work?? Or only send patches here?? Raul Fernandes [email protected]
