I was hoping someone had written some file deleting in C and knew why
it would be faster and able to kill more files than my Java code.
The C program I have been referring to is called Ace Utilities. Back
in the 16 bit days I had ways of tracing any code to find out how they
pulled off their magic. But I have no such tool for 32 or 64 bit code
and presumably programs now are so huge it would be quite hard to find
the code of interest.

The hope was, perhaps with a bit of JNI, I could pull off c-speed and
power.

I guess it may have something to do with ownership, and somehow
overriding that ownership to kill files, or possibly overriding
in-use.
