Hi:
I have a little command line utility that scans through some files, calling fstat on each of them. The problem is when I test this with a large number of files (about 180,000), I start having problems thoughout my system while the scan in running. Copying files in the Finder will sometimes fail; apps will die while accessing files and so on. Even the scanner's stat calls will failnow and then.


What type of failures are you seeing specifically?

Do they seem to happen for files that you are scanning at the same time the some thing else is attempting to use/access the file?
