The general answer to "is find faster than os.[path.]walk faster" is "it
depends." Find is optimized, compiled, and fast at what it does.
However, what it does is somewhat limited. If you

Hi Python gurus:
Is os.popen("find") faster or slower than os.path.walk to find file pattern in
the
directory tree? I thought os.path.walk would be faster than unix find, but
that doesn't
seem to be the case?

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone had used os.path.walk within a class or not,
and what are the pitfalls...
What has got me worried is that the function called by os.path.walk
must be a method of the class.
Now this means it will have something like this as a def:
def func_called_by_walk(self
