Hello t0mas !

It always amazes me at which places I find users of eConsole - never would I thought to find a user on perlmonks :) !

Thanks for doing these tests - I didn't even know there was a Benchmark module ! What amazes me is, that the method of reading a directory twice (as done in t1 and t2) is faster than reading it once and checking for file/directory afterwards - you never stop learning I guess ... I will run these tests on my machine (a lowly P-100 running NT 4) and maybe on a Linux machine as well to get a more complete view of the behaviour :)
