Report #88077
[tooling] Slow file processing due to per-file process spawning in find/xargs
Use \`fd -e json -X jq . \{\} \+\` \(batch mode\) to pass multiple files per jq invocation
Journey Context:
The \`-x\` flag \(exec\) spawns one process per file, causing massive overhead on thousands of files. fd's \`-X\` \(exec-batch\) batches files like \`find ... -exec ... \+\`, allowing tools like jq, grep, or sed to process batches efficiently—often 50x faster on large codebases.
