if u have indexed all the files in ur PC, it will also take just seconds when search a file in ur PC, the same as u search info with google, but if u don't index files in ur PC, search files is time consuming job.
here, 'file indexing' is one of the reason that cause the differentiation, google always do 'file indexing' in the background (24x7x365, never stopping).
