Try "unalias ls" before you do that.  Does it make a difference?

On my systems (and probably most CentOS/Red Hat) I have:

        $ alias ls
        alias ls='ls --color=tty'

defined in /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh.  This results in an extra stat() system 
call per file in the output listing to determine the node type.
