I presume you have glibc-2.22, which does extraneous stat calls.

coreutils now avoids this issue with:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=coreutils.git;a=commitdiff;h=v8.24-13-gfd5f2b1

The glibc issue is tracked at:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18921

and fixed at:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=5c8c3123

cheers,
Pádraig
