They are needed to implement race-free filesystem traversal,\nthey are necessary to implement a virtual per-thread current working\ndirectory (think multi-threaded backup software), etc.\n\nWe have in glibc today implementations of the interfaces which use the\n/proc/self/fd magic. But this code is rather expensive. Here are some\nresults (similar to what Jim Meyering posted before).\n\nThe test creates a deep directory hierarchy on a tmpfs filesystem.
