Code was using two string_lists, one for the directories and one for the files. The code never checks the lists independently so we should be able to only use one list. The string_list also is a O(log n) for lookup and insertion. Switching this to use a hashmap will give O(1) which will save some time when there are millions of paths that will be checked.
Also cleaned up a memory leak and method where the return was not being used.
