The following code gathers the path names of all SGML files in a directory tree. It just runs VERY VERY slow. I am working with 33,000 files and it took this code almost 5 hours to gather everything into the array.
Is there a faster method anyone could suggest?
Be kind, I am new and this is my first post to the Monks.
Thanks!
use File::Find;
use Time::localtime;
$now = ctime();
my @dirs = @ARGV or die "No valid directory argument(s)";
find( sub{ m/\.sgml$/ and push @files,"$File::Find::name" and print "$
+File::Find::name\n";}, @dirs, );
$fileCount=@files;
print "\nThere are $fileCount files here.\n";
$then = ctime();
print $now;
print "\n";
print $then;

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
