directory - list all files from directories and subdirectories in Java

Question

What would be the fastest way to list the names of files from 1000+ directories and sub-directories?

EDIT; The current code I use is:

import java.io.File;

public class DirectoryReader {

  static int spc_count=-1;

  static void Process(File aFile) {
    spc_count++;
    String spcs = "";
    for (int i = 0; i < spc_count; i++)
      spcs += " ";
    if(aFile.isFile())
      System.out.println(spcs + "[FILE] " + aFile.getName());
    else if (aFile.isDirectory()) {
      System.out.println(spcs + "[DIR] " + aFile.getName());
      File[] listOfFiles = aFile.listFiles();
      if(listOfFiles!=null) {
        for (int i = 0; i < listOfFiles.length; i++)
          Process(listOfFiles[i]);
      } else {
        System.out.println(spcs + " [ACCESS DENIED]");
      }
    }
    spc_count--;
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    String nam = "D:/";
    File aFile = new File(nam);
    Process(aFile);
  }

}

As this answer shows up on top of google, i'm adding a java 7 nio solution for listing all files and directories, it is takes about 80% less time on my system.

try {
    Path startPath = Paths.get("c:/");
    Files.walkFileTree(startPath, new SimpleFileVisitor<Path>() {
        @Override
        public FileVisitResult preVisitDirectory(Path dir,
                BasicFileAttributes attrs) {
            System.out.println("Dir: " + dir.toString());
            return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
        }

        @Override
        public FileVisitResult visitFile(Path file, BasicFileAttributes attrs) {
            System.out.println("File: " + file.toString());    
            return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
        }

        @Override
        public FileVisitResult visitFileFailed(Path file, IOException e) {
            return FileVisitResult.CONTINUE;
        }
    });
} catch (IOException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}
