Here below is what I was running,
<!--- this is a shared network drive, unix folder actually --->
<cfset directoryname="\\jwoc\units\data\units">
<cfset tstart=gettickcount()>
<cfdirectory action="list" name="getinfo" directory="#directoryname#">
<cfset tend=gettickcount()>
<cfoutput>#(tend-tstart) * .001# seconds - #getinfo.recordcount#
records</cfoutput>
<cfset tstart=gettickcount()>
<cfset
thefiles=createobject("java","java.io.File").init("\\jwoc\units\data\units").list()>
<cfset tend=gettickcount()>
<cfoutput>#(tend-tstart) * .001# seconds - #ArrayLen(thefiles)#
records</cfoutput>
And the output is:
79.342 seconds - 1462 records 1.078 seconds - 1462 records
Such a difference in performance, I don't understand.. I know cfdirectory
brings lots more info than just the file name strings, but still I think it is
too much of a slowness issue. what do y'all think? How is cfdirectory
implemented?
