[New-bugs-announce] [issue15200] Faster os.walk

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka at gmail.com>:

Using os.fwalk (if it is available) we can make os.walk more fast.

Microbenchmark:
./python -m timeit -s "from os import walk"  "for x in walk('Lib'): pass"

Results:
Vanilla: 112 msec
Patched: 90.5 msec
