It's not all that bad – with ExAll, your buffer can be the size of one
entry, if you like, and it will still handle it properly, since if there
were more files than would fit in the buffer, it tells you and lets you
resume from there.
According to somebody at CBM (can't remember who), it's a few less task
switches per file – it's not a matter of how fast you call Examine() and
ExNext(), it's just that the method was slower than ExAll() inherently.
(One of the first things I wrote for my 2.0 library was a
ReadDirectoryIntoList() function that uses ExAll – I should upload it. I
should upload the whole library… it's got a lot of routines that make
calling 2.0 functions easier).
