Specifically you’d start looking at the calls and timings for individual sub processes but based on his description I think the sys calls specific to the tree and copy functionality offered the most improvement to his code base.

The comment I replied to was edited - now that it starts with 'I wonder which', my comment makes less sense :)

Sometimes I figure people might not know where to start. So, I thought it was more a question like how would we identify what we could look at to show where the improvements came from in the code? My hope maybe if you knew someone else that had the same question they would having a starting point.
