Try replacing FSDeleteObject with [[NSFileManager defaultManager] removeItemAtPath: pth error: &erro];
Worked for me. Delete of folder containing 7500 files went from realllly slow down to nice and quick. I also found that other older FSRef based api's got slow. Sandboxing? Discouraging use of elderly API's? Time to ditch the old stuff anyway.
