Unix OSes sometimes run mklocatedb at night, so you later can run
"locate fileX" and it will tell you all places where fileX appears.
It's not necessarily "better" than your solution, seems about equal.

As others have noted, find can do it if you want to make a search
on the current view and not the nightly version.
