did not help - I tested it. and probably should since describe-variable says it is NTFS only:


Documentation:
Non-nil means determine accurate link count in `file-attributes'.
Note that this option is only useful for files on NTFS volumes, where hard links
are supported.  Moreover, it slows down `file-attributes' noticeably.



what else? could it be really considered a bug. from the original trace - I noted that Emacs is kind of looking for a source control related files like: .bzr\checkout\, _MTN, {arch}\, MCVS\ and walking thru the tree structure multiple times.
