I just timed it again: it took 50 seconds.

I do use directories, yes. Lots of them:

  * The top level is alphabetic in groups (0-9, A-B, C-D, E-F, G-H, I-J,
    K-L, M, N-O-P-Q, R-S, T, U-V-W-X-Y-Z). So 12 directories at the top
    level.
  * The above directories contain movies, but also subdirectories (for
    TV box sets).
  * The TV box set directories can contain subdirectories for each
    season. Single-season series don't have these subdirectories.

Not sure what you're asking. Is there an incantation I should run to
produce the answer?

No, that is instant.

No.

Many thanks, Jan
