Created attachment 341015 [details] Benchmark Use access() instead of stat() in FileSystem::fileExists(). stat() returns a lot of information we do not leverage. Local benchmarking on macOS shows access() being > 80% faster than stat(). Benchmark results: stat: 0.31567 (lower is better) access: 0.16074 (lower is better) stat: 0.303665 (lower is better) access: 0.165468 (lower is better)
