Testing the existence of a directory is very slow

When testing the existence of a directory it appears that if the directory contains many (nested) files, the test takes a considerable amount of time to complete. Is this expected? My assumption is that this test would complete quite quickly. For example, the following test takes 9 seconds to complete on my arm64 macOS 12.6.1 system against the community `nginx` image:

Test:

```
fileExistenceTests:
- name: Root
path: /
shouldExist: true
```

Output (w/ `time`):

```
$ time container-structure-test -v debug test --image nginx --config container-structure.yaml
