As a programmer, you should be careful about what you mean by
"endless" and "infinite".

Do you *really* mean infinite? As in, your file system goes into an
infinite loop?

If you just mean "a lot" (but not infinite), that's a different story,
and also likely--that's how higher layers of file system APIs often
behave in Mac OS X. It's also possible that because of some erroneous/
improper return from your file system, you are causing more file
system activity than is warranted.
