yeah -exec creates more systemload then xargs. That is because -exec
starts one awk for each file it finds. Awk through xargs is called not so
often because it processes more then one file each time it gets called
(because xargs passes more then one file over to it). Thats why xargs is
in most cases cooler then -exec ;)
