We ran the same script over the same file on different machines and strangelly the worst performante was produced on our brand new server: an HP Proliant DL380G5 w/ 10krpm SAS disks. I suppose that it must be a question of tunning the kernel. What can i do to enhance the application processing time on this server?
TEST RESULTS (same script, same large file, different servers):
i) Laptop PC w/ Celeron processor runnig GentoOS (BEST PERFORM) - 1'38"
ii) HP Proliant DL380G3 Xeon 3GHz running RHEL3.6 - 6'14"
iii) HP Proliant DL380G5 2xXeon 2-core 3,4GHz running RHEL4.4 - 11'26"
Solved! Go to Solution.

Try
$ LANG=C grep ...

Re: low performance when running 'grep' and 'awk' scripting over large text file
Interesting results.
The Os is different.
The processor is different.
The amount ofmemory is likely different.
The Patch level is different.
The storage(disk) performance is likely different.
Any of the factors above could impact the results.
More memory and a larger buffer cache will normally improve performance in such sitations. There are a lot of variables here.
