time updatedb 
real    1m35.163s
user    0m0.815s
sys     0m2.454s

this was the first time i ran it after installation. i had uinstalled slocate 
prior to this.

PRUNEPATHS="/tmp /var/tmp /root/.ccache /media/stuff/backup/gentoo32"

the last folder is my 32bit chroot.
and i got arround 225 gb of data. i tried running a few qurries .. seems to 
have indexed everything

also after this i tried deleting /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db and then running 
updatedb and it hardly took a second. 

time updatedb

real    0m0.367s
user    0m0.193s
sys     0m0.167s

weird indeed.
