	It transpires that this is indeed the cause of the non-linearity,
simply disabling it means we scale to 10,000 files in a directory rather
nicely - although that chews a fairly huge amount of memory - it also
means I can see /dev quickly without that annoying dialog.

	So, as Jody fixes this we need to bump the directory limit, perhaps
double it to ~8000 ?.

	Regards,
