Apart from the cvs commits and some discussion on this list, I'm afraid there isn't too much. The most important changes started on July 14th (Antoine's change to DirectoryScanner) and things have settled down about two week later. In a nutshell, the scanner will now detect situations like includes="a/b/c/d/**" and not scan any directories that are not below d at all. The old code would start with the base directory of the file set and at least scan a, a/b and a/b/c even though it never needed the results of the scans. So you'll notice a speedup of all scanning operations for filesets that contain include patterns with constant path prefixes. In particular you'll notice a big speedup for filesets that don't match on wildcards at all (i.e. where all include patterns are complete paths).
