This makes sense.  However, depending on the environment, like a  
fairly dynamic one, a lot of files could be changing.

Personally, on my production servers, I do weekly.  On my desktop/ 
laptop machines, I want it daily.

That being said, are there any other ideas why slocate doesn't do  
anything for me?  I've done the updatedb a few times and I still get  
nothing on the output of the locate command.
