Do a directory listing on a massive directory and watch the CPU. That's what made me switch to FlashFXP years ago.
And that's a problem for the client? The root of the problem lies with the developer/webmaster who setup/uses the "massive directory". What kinda idiot just lets their directories go out of control? You're just asking for trouble with directories so massive that they lag connections trying to get data from them.
If you need to deal with these "massive directories" you better make sure that your own CPU can handle the data transfer when you're working with them!

That's not the point. FlashFXP can handle it just fine.
I was curious, so I fired up CuteFTP (not sure why I have it installed??), and even with multiple connections open and downloading and having a couple connections loading my largest directory listing (not that big though) I simply can not get it to use more then 9% of my dual core AMD.
Used it in the past.... but switched to flashfxp, never looked back

Yeah I used CuteFTP for years and finally gave it up after little problems with is continued to annoy me. I have since been using FileZilla with no complaints.

CuteFTP used to be THE program of choice for doing file transfers but it fell behind the times and never recovered. All the other FTP programs surpassed it.

image hosting type situations this is unavoidable, you're an idiot if you seriously think that there isn't EVER a situation where massive directories are unavoidable.
The good news is some filesystems will LIMIT you to 30k directories (I've hit it before)
I use winscp for everything, FTP, SFTP and I like the integration with putty for when I want to jump in and do something real quick in shell.

Give him a break. He's only read about the kinds of directories you and I have worked on (or own).
