Re: [Python-Dev] Issue 11406: adding os.scandir(), a directory iterator returning stat-like info

I wonder how sshfs compared to nfs.

(I've modified your benchmark to also test the case where data isn't in the page cache). Local ext3: cached: os.walk took 0.096s, scandir.walk took 0.030s -- 3.2x as fast uncached: os.walk took 0.320s, scandir.walk took 0.130s -- 2.5x as fast NFSv3, 1Gb/s network: cached: os.walk took 0.220s, scandir.walk took 0.078s -- 2.8x as fast uncached: os.walk took 0.269s, scandir.walk took 0.139s -- 1.9x as fast
