+returning a list of bare filenames, it yields DirEntry objects that include
+file type and stat information along with the name.  Using scandir() increases
+the speed of os.walk() by 2-20 times (depending on the platform and file
+system) by avoiding unnecessary calls to os.stat() in most cases.")
