The locate database is very useful, but IMO it isn't something you
should rely on from code, at least not on Mac OS X.
Would it be possible for the application to tell locate to update it's
database, or set the cron job for the user? First time might be slow,
but should be quick after that, right?
It would be much faster just to search the drive than to update the
locate database every time.
