OK, second guess. :-)
Check the files in woproject/ -- are any of them empty? If so, it
will scan your entire system. Very slow. You don't want that. :-)
To avoid this, just add a line, any line, to the file. The standard is:
An empty file result in a full filesystem scan
Which I used to think was a piece of advice on something to do if you
needed a full scan. I now realize that it is a warning:
"This line is here to avoid having a empty file which would result in
a very time consuming scan of the entire file system. Don't remove it
or you will regret your hasty actions"
