I'm interested in using the filesystem library, however, I was disappointed
by the performance test I ran. I wrote a simple recursive find file function
using win32 to compare its speed with the find_file sample in the 2 minute
tutorial, I found Boost to be 2-3 times slower on average. Does anyone have
any thoughts on where the slowdown may be?
