Yes. Listing files using external tools is usually faster.
After digging into grep.el and using it a bit, I've been hoping we could
construct a high-level pluggable API inside it, so that instead of
customizing grep-program, etc, it would be possible to use third-party
alternatives (such as Ag) to list files, and to search through files,
from the core packages.
Using ls-files instead of find could work like one such alternative
(used by default as fallback).
