I built a testdir directory with 32*32 files of 1 Mibyte each with 20070110 $ time rm -r testdir real 1m40.103s user 0m0.070s sys 0m0.240s with 1.5.23-2 $ time rm -r testdir real 0m2.183s <<<< 2sec vs 2minutes user 0m0.230s sys 0m0.801s 1.5.23-2 is in the same league of Windows XP command shell $ time cmd /c "rmdir /s /q testdir" real 0m1.321s user 0m0.020s sys 0m0.020s I am also surprised that instead I found no substantial difference building the directory with 1-5.23-2 time ./test_build.sh real 2m53.480s user 0m24.920s sys 0m17.431s with 20070110 time ./test_build.sh real 2m59.498s <<< no difference user 0m24.430s sys 0m16.611s Is this behavior expected for a snapshot ?
