  Yes, but a number of Linux distros override that in /etc/profile. For
  instance all Red Hat/Fedora distros have aliases for ls that map them to
  'ls --color=auto'

I was actually just trying to figure out whether the application (ls) was
doing all those file stats, or whether readdir was somehow doing them by
mistake. Sounds like it's the application.
