I don't see how ripgrep would help with the monorepo situation. We have tooling for an equivalent of grep, but it's based on an index, not what's on your filesystem.

    IIRC, ripgrep used a faster algorithm than grep, but more recent versions of grep are now shipping with a faster (the same?) algorithm. So the above suggestion shouldn't help much unless you use a very old grep.
