It does nearly all I/O asynchronously using io_uring if available +(Linux 5.1+), which reduces the impact of seek latency on systems without SSDs. +Like mlocate and slocate, the returned file set is user-dependent, ie. a user +will only see a file if find(1) would list it (all directories from the root +have +rx permissions). + </longdescription> +</pkgmetadata> |
