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.
