Find Fast 97 can be a drag on overall system performance
If you've installed Office 97 on your system, you may notice your hard
disk burst into a frenzy of activity at regular intervals and perform
slowly. The activity is generated by the Find Fast utility. This
feature creates and manages an index that Office applications such as
Word and Excel use to launch full-text searches from the File Open
dialog box. By default, Find Fast is configured to run every two
hours, which is usually too often for most casual Office users. To set
a less frequent schedule, first open Control Panel and double-click
the Find Fast icon. Then, pull down the Index menu and select the
Update Interval... command. Now, enter a more reasonable time span,
such as every 24 hours.
