I mean grepping _easily_. When using xyzgrep you need to have more 
knowledge about what kind of files you want to grep that. That's even 
more bad if the user expects all these files uncompressed since 
decades.

All this to safe maybe 50M on a large 12G Installation?

$ find /usr/share/doc/packages/  -type f -a -iname "change*" | xargs 
du -s -B1  |sumit.sh
68792832

$ rpm -qa --qf="%{SIZE}\n" |sumit.sh
