Check if gdalinfo creates the xml files when used with the -stats option on your images. If it does, run it on all the images. I don't think there is a much quicker way. The computation of the statistics is the bottleneck here.<br>

<p><font size="2">That sucks. I have hundreds of images on disk and would like to just have the xml file for each file so that I can just do fast "greps" for specfic tags.<br>
What is the reason behind this design choice? Also are any of the gdalinfo calls quick?<br>

Jared,<br>
<br>
For gdalinfo to create .aux.xml files, you just need to force it to compute<br>
some metadata not stored in the file.<br>
