I've gotten by using a combination of: Quick Search & Replace for searching file contents and Search Everything, which indexes the files on your hard-drives so you can search through all of them very quickly. Search Everything runs in the background (~40 MB RAM used), and seems to monitor file/folder changes rather than hammering your hard-drive all at once like Windows Indexer does.
