hmmm - depends on how find implements -delete I suspect, if it is just
an unlink, then yeah - better :) If it calls an external program,
though, and does it once for every file, then it's going to be more
overhead than find and xargs ;) (without looking at the code to find, I
have no idea what it does :)
