I have a new version of my zip importing code. As before, it reads the file names from zipfiles and records them in a global dictionary to speed up finding zip imports. But what about imports from directories? Looking at the code, I saw that I could do an os.listdir(path), and record the directory file names into the same dictionary. Then it would not be necessary to perform a large number of fopen()'s. The same dictionary lookup is used instead. Is this a good idea??? It seems it should be faster when a "large" percentage of files in a directory are imported. It should be slower when only one file is imported from a directory with many names. I think I remember people discussing this before. Is the speedup real and worth the slight amount of additional code? JimA
