Caching find command

Hi,

Is there a command which caches the results of the find, so the subsequent searches for file/file-pat are faster.

Not as such. Disc buffering can make a second identical search quicker. Attention to kernel tuning for directory buffers can improve search times.

Some O/S have the locate command which is generally faster than find .
