Full Discussion: Increase the performance of find command.
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Increase the performance of find command. Post 303041940 by MadeInGermany on Saturday 7th of December 2019 09:29:21 AM

The shorter pathnames is a small improvement only when post processing the output.
Then, you can bundle the names (shortens the command, not so much the run time).
But a + instead of the \; will have an impact. Then find runs cksum with many collected arguments - fewer runs are needed.
Code:
cd /tmp/moht && find . -type d \( -name 'BACKUP' -o -name 'STORE' -o -name 'LOGGER' \) -prune -o -type f -exec cksum {} +

Further, compare the speeds of the /usr/bin/find and the freeware find.

gst-typefind-0.8(1)						   User Commands					       gst-typefind-0.8(1)

NAME

       gst-typefind-0.8, gst-typefind - print MIME type of file

SYNOPSIS

       gst-typefind-0.8 [gst-std-options] file [file...]

       gst-typefind [gst-std-options] [--gst-list-mm] [--gst-mm=string] [--print] file [file...]

DESCRIPTION

       gst-typefind-0.8 uses the GStreamer type-finding system to determine the GStreamer type of the given file(s).

       gst-typefind is a wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-typefind-X.X. For example, if both gst-typefind-0.7 and gst-
       typefind-0.8 are installed on your system, gst-typefind runs gst-typefind-0.8.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported by gst-typefind-0.8 and gst-typefind:

       gst-std-options Standard options available for use with most GStreamer applications.  See gst-std-options(5) for more information.

       The following options are supported by gst-typefind only:

       --gst-list-mm   List found major/minor versions. This option displays the versions that are available.

       --gst-mm=string Force major/minor version. This option enables you to specify a specific version to run, if you do  not	want  to  run  the
		       default version.

       --print	       Print wrapped command line. This option displays the command that will be run, and then runs the command.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       file	       Name of file for which you want to find the MIME type.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Identifying the MIME Type of file.ogg

       example% gst-typefind-0.8 file.ogg
       file.ogg - application/ogg

       Example 2: Running the Wrapper Script and Displaying the Command Name

       example% gst-typefind --print
       /usr/bin/gst-typefind-0.8

FILES

       The following files are used by this application:

       /usr/bin/gst-typefind-0.Executable to print MIME type of file

       /usr/bin/gst-typefind   Wrapper script that runs the latest installed version of gst-typefind-X.X
