Perhaps you can show me how to make Solaris 8 find run as fast as the 
GNU find or explain the very large difference in performance of these?

I used to have a qmail queue on a Solaris 8 box. qmail-qstat, which is 
basically a script that calls find and then pipes the output to awk, 
took ages to run whenever the queue is stuff by crap. Installing GNU 
find and changing the script to use that made it possible to finally get 
the number of mails in the queue.

Before I was informed of the speed difference between using the dumb 
Solaris provided find and the GNU find, my impression of a Sun box + 
Solaris 8 was: 'this sucks, it is SO VERY SLOW'.
