Simple bash script is slow to execute - appears to be time spent starting commands like ls

[Larry Adams]

The problem as I see it is Windows.  For example, only 10 iterations 
caused over 65k file and registry reads.  I have attached the output 
from SysInternals Process Explorer for your edification.  The only fix 
for this is Linux.  I still use Windows for development and "LOVE" 
Cygwin.  But Windows can't be fixed.
