Well, checking for 50000 files when we can probably only expect a few hundreds in the next ten years seems like a waste of performance. No big problem on Linux with normal file systems (apart from the needless noise in debugging runs). But I wouldn't be surprised if this is a problem on other operating systems, like Win95. (Or NFS?) I thought the alternative approach would be obvious. Instead of checking for the existence of 50000 possible files just ask the system for actual files? m. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
