How about a test case that first times stat recursively over a large 
folder and then the same with g_file_query_info. If you could run that 
on some typical hardware you're working with, I think that should be 
quite interesting.

Personally I regularly talk to people who use my code on "obscure" 
systems I don't have, maybe never heard of. And I really need practical 
examples of what they are doing and how it's performing. It doesn't help 
to emphasize your point if there is no way for the other person to 
understand it.
