title: Get file size without using System.IO.FileInfo?
body: <p>Is it possible to get the <strong>size</strong> of a file in C# without using <code>System.IO.FileInfo</code> at all?</p>
  
  <p>I know that you can get other things like Name and Extension by using <code>Path.GetFileName(yourFilePath)</code> and <code>Path.GetExtension(yourFilePath)</code> respectively, but apparently not file size? Is there another way I can get <strong>file size</strong> without using <code>System.IO.FileInfo</code>?</p>
  
  <p>The only reason for this is that, if I'm correct, FileInfo grabs more info than I really need, therefore it takes longer to gather all those FileInfo's if the only thing I need is the size of the file. Is there a faster way?</p>
