in reply to Faster Method for Gathering Data

How long does the same search take from the command line? Time both

dir /s \\remotemachine\....\*.sgml attrib /s \\remotemachine\....\*.sgml

If either of these is substantially faster than File::Find, then there may be ways of speeding things up. If not, then it would seem that you have a very slow link somewhere between you and the network drive.
