Performance issue while using find command

Hi,

I have created a shell script for Server Log Automation Process. I have used

find xargs grep command to search the string.

for Example,
Code:
 find -name | xargs grep "816995225" > test.txt

.


Here my problem is,

We have lot of records and we want to grep the string 4-5 times. so, it takes around 20 mins to finish the process.


so, how to search the string fastly using find xargs command

Please Suggest me.


Regards,
Nanthagopal A

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
