...but if you need to do this again, I hear XFS is the filesystem you want.

If it's a Linux box, ReiserFS is allegedly better with large numbers of files in a directory.

New thanx all, we are a solaris shop,
it was a horked install of some software, I needed to replace this older directory with a link to where the directory really is. For now a mv directory foo was quick so I can get on with the job at hand.
thanx,bill
