<< a parallel grep to search a single large file >>
I'm but one user, and a rather idiosyncratic user at that,
but for my usage patterns, the specialized logic that it
would take to run a parallelized grep on a large file
would likely not shrink the elapsed time enough to justify
the coding, documentation, and maintenance effort.
I would expect the time to read the large file in from disk to
dominate the total elapsed time in any case.
(or maybe I am just jealous that I didn't think of that parallel
grep use case myself <grin>.)
