Hi Fabien,
I was going to send this last night, but I thought it was too simple.
Runs in about one millisecond.

df<-data.frame(freq=runif(1000),
  strings=apply(matrix(sample(LETTERS,10000,TRUE),ncol=10),
  1,paste,collapse=""))
match.ind<-grep("DF",df$strings)
match.ind
  [1]   2  11  91 133 169 444 547 605 734 943
