If I'm in an enumerateDirectory call, I can very quickly fill in the fileID, parentID, and (maybe) the type attributes based on the directory entry I have loaded. That is, I can quickly fill in anything that is contained in the dirent structure in dirent.h, plus the parentID. However, if any other attributes are requested (say, flags), or if the file system doesn't store the filetype in the directory entry, then I need to do additional I/O and load an inode. If I have to load an inode, I might keep a reference to it and assume that I can clean it up later whenever there is a matching call to reclaimItem. But in the enumerateDirectory call, I never provide an FSItem to the system! By observation, I see that normally, a call to enumerateDirectory of this nature is followed up by a lookupItem call for every single fetched item, and then assumedly the system can later reclaim it if need be. At least, I tried various ways of listing directories, and each way I tried showed this behavior. If that's the cas
