Very slow: I compared this app with FAF. I asked both apps to find files that have a "term" on their names in my home directory. " FAF was able to identify 63 files containing the given term within 50 seconds (I have SSD drive) while Dfind was not able to find not even a single item after 7 minutes of searching. I stopped and removed the app at the point because it is pointless.

Could someone who has used this please post a review of their experiences? How well does it work? How does it compare to Tembo or File Buddy or the other 3rd party file search apps? While this looks interesting, I am reluctant to purchase something without trying and/or guidance from users of the software. some info on experience/quality/utility of the app would be appreciated by others - thanks!
