/etc/security takes a number of hours to run on my system.  The problem
is that I have some very large mounted file systems and the code to look
for setuid files wants to walk through them all.  I recoded the check in
Perl, but it ran at about the same speed.  I have considered reworking
the code to do the file systems in parallel, but I thought I should ask
here first.  Comments?  Suggestions?
