moving slowly

Hi,

Im trying to move a directory to another directory.. the way 
I've been recommended doing it (looking through this archive) is

<move todir="newdirname">
  <fileset dir="oldname">
    <include name="**/*.*"/>
  </fileset>
</move>

However my directory contains thousands and thousands of files,
and this is taking ages. When you use the move command in DOS
on a directory its instantaneous. Is there a better way to
do this in ANT that wont take this long?

Thanks
Geoff
