You'd be wrong there; 

time find . -name CMakeLists.txt 
[snip]
real    0m49.669s
user    0m0.144s
sys     0m0.796s

Naturally; that with clean caches; doing it a second time gives me an 
immediate result. But I _was_ talking about first impressions.
This incidently is also a major pain in the * for me; if I do a gdb 
session it will take all my memory and I end up waiting an additional 
minute for a make to start.

ps; a wc -l returns 502.
