Subject: [9fans] Are there disadvantages to walk?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: f6ee58b2-ead9-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I remember hearing of some disadvantage to walking directories, but can't remember what it was.  Could someone remind me, please?  Perhaps there was more than one, of course.  Perhaps a performance trick couldn't be employed?
