Zoran Dimitrijevic commented on HADOOP-1540:
--------------------------------------------

#5: we were experiencing performance issues for large number of files only 
because of RPCs to either namenode or to s3. Filtering each file name locally 
using a small number of compiled regex or glob rules should not be a big deal, 
especially since it's optional. For example, sorting a big filelist that we do 
now is much more expensive.

Thank you for your patch!

> There should be a way to ignore specific paths (eg: those that have already 
> been copied over under the current srcPath).
