multifilesystem: Improve performance of PROPFIND - #2194
Merged
Conversation
The PROPFIND does not need to check the filesystem for the file existence, because the list comes from the directory listing, similar as the other parts already do it. That was highly visible with large collections (10k+ items), causing massive delays. Also avoid repeated stat() calls on the same path.
