the helma.* code is a re-implementation in Javascript of what helma
previously implemented "natively" in Java. It is rather new code, and
may not be well tested or optimized in all cases. You should be able
to test the old, native code by just dropping the helma. prefix, using
File(...) instead of helma.File(...).

If that doesn't help, another option is to use the java.io.* Api directly.
