Bernhard Voelker has already proposed a fix on the mailing list.  However, this patch should result in dramatically fewer calls to stat if the stat information is not needed by any other test.

I'm going to push the patch shortly.

With findutils-4.5.10 the -inum option works only on some fs types. I tried xfs and ext4 and while -inum works on xfs, it doesn't on ext4. -samefile works on both fs types. This is on a openSUSE 12.2 system with kernel 3.4.6.

Where might I look to possibly pinpoint the POF?
