Whenever I want to convert an old pre-NFS "global find" command to run
on a machine with NFS mounts (and with a "find" which supports the
-fstype and -prune operators), I start with the template:

	find dirs rest-of-find-args

		becomes

	find dirs -fstype nfs -prune -o \( rest-of-find-args \)

Judicious use of escaped newlines and indenting can make the result
more readable, and some logical simplification may be possible, but
this simple approach works.  Your version causes find to have to
access the inode just to satisfy the "-type f" portion of the command,
before getting to the part that keeps find from crossing the remote
mount point.
