That's a lot of files for a single folder branch.

It takes forever to synchronize...

What does this have to do with Rocks'n'Diamonds? :?: :?

Is that your R'n'D directory?
The H. World levelset can be downloaded from http://www.bd-fans.com/RnD.html -- search The H. World on that page.

If it is RnD levels you are talking about, temporarily turning off your anti-virus software increases the speed of copying/moving levels rapidly.

Takes forever if you want to burn your R&D directory onto a CD!

That's also probably because there are many small files. It's quicker to burn one file of 1 MB size than 1024 files of 1 kB size. Turning off anti-virus improves the speed a bit, other ways of reducing the time further is to compress the directory into a ZIP file.
