Pre-loading the file system cache (a la "find /path/to/temp -type f

Do you mean that:-
find /path/to/temp -type f -print >/dev/null
rm -rf /path/to/temp
is faster than just
rm -rf /path/to/temp
or do you mean that you have arranged to do the find before the point
where you want to delete? If the former, that surprises me somewhat.
