do you have SSDs or spinning rust?
when i just did this:
# find / -type f | wc -l
it took all of 24 seconds for the 2.4 million files
Out of morbid curiosity (and boredom), I started wondering what types of
audio files I had on my systems. I ran "file --mime-type" on 6.8 million
files, looked for "audio/whatever" and got the file extensions.

That is an incredibly silly way to write

But the bigger issue is that audio files may have MANY different
extensions, with .snd being only one of them.
