Derek,

I think I figured out why this is happening but I don't know if it's a 
problem or a "feature".  Try this and see if it slows down the 
eraseItems():

1. Right click in the desktop
2. Select "Properties" from the popup
3. Click the "Effects" tab
4. Check the "Use transition effects for menus and tooltips" (I'm 
assuming it's not checked on your system).
5. Click Okay.

Now run the program and see if the clear time is not dramatically 
increased.

Maybe I should call Uncle Bill on this one?  :)
