Oh yes, now that I think about it, one other suggestion.  Don't use ls. 
Traverse the directories by hand.  The overhead of running a process can
be large plus you have to parse the output of ls.  To traverse it what
you'll want to do something like what is described here:
http://iis1.cps.unizar.es/Oreilly/perl/cookbook/ch09_08.htm

or possibly here:
