yes, it will run a bit longer, because it will check all the files. As you can see it already found a few and you only need to wait now...
you can try:

Code:

grep -ilr "pattern" search_dir

where you can specify the search_dir as you wish (so instead of . you can start it in another directory - that may help you to speed it up)

# # find . -type f -exec grep 192.168 {} \; > log.txt
# that works and might be faster
# but this is usually easier for daily use:

$ for x in `find -type f` ; do grep 192.168 >> log.txt ; done

find is definitely slower
