mlocate

An utility for finding files by name

mlocate is a locate/updatedb implementation. It keeps a database of all existing files and allows you to lookup files by name. The 'm' stands for "merging": updatedb reuses the existing database to avoid rereading most of the file system, which makes updatedb faster and does not trash the system caches as much as traditional locate implementations.
