You probably mean:
On many modern versions of "find" the "+" syntax is actually fastest of all:
Addendum:

ls * | wc –w => this gives you the number of files in the current directory including all subdirectories
Sort of true. It does however exclude filenames starting with a period (e.g. .profile). It also sorts each directory to alphabetical order which is a bit of a waste if all you wanted to do was count them. It also gives an incorrect count if any filename contains a space character because you are counting "words". You also count directory files but because "including all subdirectories" is ambiguous it's hard to tell whether this is intentional.
Hi, I need a script that loops through all the files two directories
passed to it via parameter, and if two files have the same name, do a
cmp comparison on the files. If the files are different, output the

doveadm-log
DOVEADM-LOG(1) Dovecot DOVEADM-LOG(1)NAME
doveadm-log - Locate, test or reopen Dovecot's log files
SYNOPSIS
doveadm [-Dv] log errors
doveadm [-Dv] log find [directory]
doveadm [-Dv] log reopen
doveadm [-Dv] log test
DESCRIPTION
The doveadm log commands are used to locate and reopen the log files of dovecot(1). It's also possible to test the configured targets of
the *log_path settings.
OPTIONS
Global doveadm(1) options:
-D Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-v Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
COMMANDS
log errors
doveadm log errors
The log errors command is used to show the last - up to 1,000 - errors and warnings. If no output is generated, no errors have occurred
since the last start.
log find
doveadm log find [directory]
The log find command is used to show the location of the log files, to which dovecot(1) sends its log messages. If dovecot(1) logs its
messages through syslogd(8) and doveadm(1) could not find any log files, you can specify the directory where your syslogd writes its log
files.
log reopen
doveadm log reopen
This command causes doveadm to reopen all log files, configured in the log_path, info_log_path and debug_log_path settings. These settings
are configured in /etc/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf.
This is for example useful after manually rotating the log files.
log test
doveadm log test
This command causes doveadm to write the message "This is Dovecot's priority log (timestamp)" to the configured log files. The used prior-
ities are: debug, info, warning, error and fatal.
EXAMPLE
This example shows how to locate the log files used by dovecot(1).
doveadm log find
Looking for log files from /var/log
Debug: /var/log/dovecot.debug
Info: /var/log/mail.log
Warning: /var/log/mail.log
Error: /var/log/mail.log
Fatal: /var/log/mail.log
