--- Comment #3 from Len <l...@winequest.com> --- One more piece of context. /slowdir has a couple hundred files and is on a flash drive. /slowdir/bigdir is a symbolic link to a directory on a magnetic drive which has 1.8M image files. As Adam said, the scan is for pattern '*.*' in /slowdir, but Ant is also querying all files in /slowdir/bigdir, even though that information is not necessary and is not being used. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
