Did you restart your system in between the tests (to clean up the
cache)? Also, I think I had a much faster oneliner than arg's...

Will have a look if I can dig it up...

$ time find /opt/texlive/2005/bin/i386-linux /home/antoni/bin /sbin
/usr/sbin /usr/local/bi n /usr/bin /bin /opt/bin
/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.1.1 /opt/ati/bin /usr/kde/3.5/bin
/usr/qt/3/bin /usr/games/bin /opt/vmware/server/bin -maxdepth 1 -type f
 | sort | uniq 1>/dev/null

real 0m0.052s
user 0m0.040s
sys 0m0.012s

$ time ./bin/dmenu-input | sort | uniq 1>/dev/null

real 0m0.036s
user 0m0.024s
sys 0m0.016s

Not much difference I'd say (with the directory listings cached). Still
dmenu-input is nice in the way that it makes config.h simpler.
