That's too long; I never saw such huge delays. What files are in that directory, mostly? are there lots of large subdirectories or files with unusual file-name extensions? Can you post what "ls -F" produces for that directory? > with ls -F, if the object is a file, it displays the file name such as > "xxxx", if it is a directory, it will display "xxxx/", if I have 20 > files in a directory, it will easily for me to find what I want either a > file or a directory. Does "ls --color=auto" display faster? If so, you could use that to get the same information from the color of the file names.
