I' m sorry to dissapoint you but there is no special reason using the -ds option. My colleague and I are just looking for a way to continue without recieving errors.

As David Carlisle says, it probably means that you are using a Windows

I'm interested to see you're using the -ds option. Did you find that it
works faster? If so, I'm interested in the figures.
