Additional Information

To properly filter out feature datasets that contain only data not visible to the current user, additional queries were introduced to the listing of datasets to make sure that the integrity of the privilege model was maintained. These additional queries take additional time, but produce better results. Unfortunately these questions are required when listing feature classes from the workspace level as seen with arcpy.ListFeatureClasses, so there is no way to go back to the performance seen in 10.2 ArcMap.
