See the `locate' command.  It's very handy to quickly find files
on your system:

$ locate bib-cite.el
/usr/lib/xemacs-20.4/lisp/auctex/bib-cite.el.gz
/usr/lib/xemacs-20.4/lisp/auctex/bib-cite.elc
/usr/share/emacs/19.34/site-lisp/auctex/bib-cite.elc
/usr/share/emacs/20.3/site-lisp/auctex/bib-cite.elc
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/auctex/bib-cite.el

To be able to do this feat, the system runs find every day.
