Deleting files extremely slow since OSX High sierra

Hi,

I have a custom installer, which places various audio plugins (bundles)
onto the target system and as an uninstaller it removes them. It manages
them the same way as any other folder (containing folders and files). Since
OSX High sierra deleting these files became extremely slow, almost like the
OSX is checking the bundles after every change. On some computers it also
blocks write access to the files inside these bundles (e.g. if the
installer is used again). It almost seems like some pseudosecurity measure
gone wrong, not the first time on OSX after all...

Any ideas what is going on? For the record I'm using FSDeleteObject to
delete files/folders, I know deprecated, but I don't see a reason for
messing up with new API if the old one works.

Thanks in advance.
Vojtech
