[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #60387] ftp class method 'dir' extremely slow

[John W. Eaton]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #60387 (project octave):

The attached example program (adapted from one I downloaded from the cURL web
pages) appears to get accurate size and timestamp info without actually
downloading the files.  It is faster than what we are doing in Octave but
still slow.  I see about 14s for this program vs. 40 for Octave.  So probably
the only good option for speed is to parse the output from a directory
listing, but AFAIK, there is no uniform format for that output from an ftp
server.
