I have some ideas ... depending on what query you do (ie what Filter) 
the shapefile datastore is going to start by traversing a different file.
I bet if a FidFilter is being used it is starting with the shx file? If 
a geometry filter was being used it would traverse the shp file (and 
randomly access the other two).

I always though all three were needed?
