pevFind makes bad decisions for choosing which directories to search

The next bug/quirk manifested itself in Vista/Win7.
Was trying to search all the Appdata folders; namely ...
* C:\Users\sUBs\AppData\Roaming\
* C:\ProgramData\
* C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\
* C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming\
Command that was used ....
PEV -sacdate -t!o -tf -dcg1M -c:##c . #m#b#u#b#t#b#f# and "C:\Users\sUBs\AppData\Roaming\*" or "C:\ProgramData\*" or "C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\*" or "C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming\*" and *.bat or *.cmd or *.com or *.dll or *.pif or *.scr or *.sys or *.exe or *.drv and not mpengine.dll
Command ran okay but noticed it took quite long to process and CPU cycles spiked heavily.
If I did this instead ....
PEV -sacdate -t!o -tf -dcg1M -c:##c . #m#b#u#b#t#b#f# "C:\Users\sUBs\AppData\Roaming\*" and *.bat or *.cmd or *.com or *.dll or *.pif or *.scr or *.sys or *.exe or *.drv and not mpengine.dll
PEV -sacdate -t!o -tf -dcg1M -c:##c . #m#b#u#b#t#b#f# "C:\ProgramData\*" and *.bat or *.cmd or *.com or *.dll or *.pif or *.scr or *.sys or *.exe or *.drv and not mpengine.dll
PEV -sacdate -t!o -tf -dcg1M -c:##c . #m#b#u#b#t#b#f# "C:\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\*" and *.bat or *.cmd or *.com or *.dll or *.pif or *.scr or *.sys or *.exe or *.drv and not mpengine.dll
PEV -sacdate -t!o -tf -dcg1M -c:##c . #m#b#u#b#t#b#f# "C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming\*" and *.bat or *.cmd or *.com or *.dll or *.pif or *.scr or *.sys or *.exe or *.drv and not mpengine.dll
It runs much smoother/faster without spiking the CPU.
