Sure. Still running under my home folder. Just a moment please. :) v8.0.0 has finished. Now, v8.1.0 is running and it is much slower. I will post the screenshot once...

Hi, Here is the result. 8.0.0 is faster (not sure whether it is accurate because I was watching YouTube while hyperfine was running :P). And actually based on my observation...

Thank you!!! > If the overall speed of both searches is roughly the same v8.0.0 is still 1x faster than v8.1.0. > I guess it's mostly a matter of luck...

Run `brew log fd`, I got:  I installed fd v8.1.0 via `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/5f06a6b8a6f752e02cf548f77d3885334c2b7a0b/Formula/fd.rb`. Then the issue still exists. Installed fd v8.0.0 via `brew install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/d874b06712ec20efd86f2fbf20e97aa2f24e9f5b/Formula/fd.rb`. The issue is gone.

Wow, so it is! Thank you. Is it possible for fd to provide an option to choose depth-first traversal or breadth-first traversal? For fzf, breadth-first traversal is much more efficient,...

Roger that! Thanks. :P

Hi @sharkdp > I think I might have found the reason why this happens. I actually upgraded the fd dependencies without noticing that there was a new version of the...

As my further investigated, `fzf` with `fd v8.1.1` still bring this performance issue. I put my test procedure below for the users who encounter the same thing as a reference....

@tmccombs Exactly. This is what sharkdp mentioned in his previous comment (https://github.com/sharkdp/fd/issues/599#issuecomment-633300032). ripgrep switched to DFS. Even though this switching will reduce the peak memory usage and won't affect the...

@sfdye Cool!! Looking forward to it.
