You could accomplish this making by iterating over all files and find their last modified date and time by using the FIletime() function. Then doing a FIRST 2 LOAD on the rows sorted by the new timestamp field

The only thing of which I can think that may provide some additional help is the following Design Blog post:

May provide some further help around trying to most efficiently do things.
