Filesystem efficiency- search sample

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? Terence Wilson

If you send me your timing code, I'll be happy to take a look at it. --Beman
