All FS type searches are slower

the menu does this

kMDItemDisplayName == "*.radiusconfig"

this will be much faster

DisplayName is the cached name as you would see in the Finder, FSName does a catalog search

Vince,

The problem is if the user types Foobar.txt I have no way of knowing if the target has hide extensions turned on or not (or what the state of that checkbox was when Spotlight indexed the file) so I've found searching on the display name didn't give me the hits I was expecting. Is my memory or approach flawed? Is there some way out of this conundrum?

Thanks,
Jim
