in reply to Get useful info about a directory tree

Meanwhile a simple, recursive "opendir/readdir" process works reasonably and consistently well in all cases (and is also a lot faster than File::Find),
Since that's precisely what File::Find is doing, I'm curious as to how you were using it. Do you have some code from your failed File::Find experiments that we can benchmark?
