I'm running into an issue where Describe() is just waaayyyy too slow.
Is there a faster alterative?
Specifically, I want things like datasetType, etc.
Ideally I'd love to get the file as a ____Object, like get a feature class object from a file path and then just query its properties.
Is this possible at all?
