Arguably, feeding the head of the 25GB input file to your one-liner and checking the output displayed looks right, is a different one-time script to the feeding it the whole thing and redirecting the output to the results file.

But it's definitely a test worth doing :)


With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

The start of some sanity?
