in reply to Re^2: unix loops in perl
in thread unix loops in perl

Ok, I should say 'probabbly' less time is needed

If your proccess doesn't take many resources (cpu/network/memory), then probably it is true, isn't it?

So you have 30 process running at same time in an computer which is perfectly capable to do its work, the it will be faster than running 30 process one by one in a bucle.

If you have an algorithm wich consume all (or near to) cpu / memory / network, then it will not be fastest but slower

Do you agree now ?
