I'd suggest ripgrep [0] for even faster results.

ripgrep doesn't seem to just be fast, it has a good set of features compared to the alternatives too! https://beyondgrep.com/feature-comparison/

Might also want to use FZF as selection interface for the ripgrep results, if applicable.

It's Rust-based, though, and is thus difficult to get installed on older systems.

Which systems? I have a ten year old laptop it works fine on.
