There were reasons of using os.scandir() in os.walk() and glob.glob(). You may scan thousands of files and performs a heavy I/O only with few of them. There was smaller reason of using it in shutil.rmtree() -- removing an entry from the directory is fast, but likely you will spent much more time for creating a tree. But I don't know reasons of using it in shutil.copytree() in which you need to performs a heavy I/O with every file and directory. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33414> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
