If you’ve got 25,000 text files on disk, ‘you’re doing it wrong’. Depending on how you store them on disk, the slowness could literally be seeking on disk to find the files.

If you’ve got 25,0000 of anything it’ll be faster if you put it in a database with an intelligent index — even if you make the index field the filename it’ll be faster.

If you have multiple directories that descend N levels deep, a database would still be faster.
