It's been like this (110.newgrpperm) for 2hrs 16 mins

/etc/periodic/security/110.neggrpperm has the following line, which I've put
in quote marks (the quote marks are not present in the actual file)

"n=$(find -sx $MP /dev/null \( ! -fstype local \) -prune -o -type f \"

although I'm not certain, it suggests to me it's looking through the entire disk,
not excluding anything.


If this script is the culprit is easily tested, disable it and see. I guess you can stay a few days without checking for negative permissions.

Also, $MP is defined in such a way to exclude filesystems that set "nosuid/noexec". I do happen to have those setup for my ccache directory so it is skipping that.

With zfs it is especially easy to set these flags, and I think having noexec/nosuid/nodev for ccache cache is a good practice anyway.

I have this for ccache FS (zfs):

dumpster/ccache compression lz4 inherited from dumpster
dumpster/ccache  atime                 on                     local
dumpster/ccache  devices               off                    local
dumpster/ccache  exec                  off                    local
dumpster/ccache setuid off inherited from dumpster
