[bug #24140] Painfully slow find(1) in list-permission-only AFS paths

[James Youngman]

Follow-up Comment #18, bug #24140 (project findutils):

Yes, if I had access to an AFS system for development/testing, yes, I'd work
on this.   Without it, no.   

It sounds brutal to baldly state it, but this problem has existed for years. 
 Yet still nobody has come forward volunteering to donate a patch and maintain
it.   Nobody has come forward offering a suitable test/development system.  
Given the absence of both those things, working on this hardly looks like a
good time investment.

Mocking in a sufficiently realistic AFS emulation layer for development and
regession testing is probably more work itself than just developing a fix, I
would think.

I'm not blocking a fix here, I'm just pointing out that the prerequisites for
a fix do not seem to be forthcoming.
