Yes, this is ok, but I was meaning that the Operating System has the 
inodes already loaded, so reading the directory contents doesn't take my 
hard disk to read them again. I don't see my hard disk reading when I 
hit reload, I see top cpu usage (95 % user) for about a second, no cpu 
activy for about 0.5 seconds, and then close to the 2 seconds the 
contents is drawn.

Where is this cpu usage spent?
Why does it "wait" to drawn the icons?

Hope I have explained better now.

Thanks.
