hm, you are right:

$ time find tmp/ -name rand-[0-9]\*|xargs rm                
real    0m3.171s
user    0m0.340s
sys     0m2.400s

$ time find tmp/ -name rand-[0-9]\* -exec rm {} \;

real    2m52.448s
user    1m9.570s
sys     1m33.280s

with 20000 rand-* files. A test with 200000 files yielded ~3'30" for xargs,
still waiting for -exec ...

$ time find tmp/ -name rand-[0-9]\* -delete 

yields same figure as xargs (200 kfiles, not supported on 20k files test pc);
unfortunatly old vers of find(1) don't support it.

Seems I relied on old readings / tests - thanks for the hint, gonna change
some script myself :)
