do you know why the Finder performs a search much much faster than my Cocoa
application? For example, if I search for all the filenames ending with
".mov", the Finder finds all the 72 ".mov" files in my boot disk in 8
seconds. My application takes 2 minutes...!
I am using MacOS X 10.2.6 and basically iterate through the following array.
Please note that even if I used NSDirectoryEnumerator the speed is the same.
