Sample file of 1,375,031 lines. Output set to 20 characters.
tr piped into fold
real 0m18.61s
user 0m15.38s
sys 0m2.46s
Perl version:
real 0m41.25s
user 0m39.09s
sys 0m2.06s
Output set to 32768 bytes:
tr | fold fails as with "Invalid number". Manual page mages no
reference to a maximum value, oddly enough.
Perl version:
real 0m4.80s
user 0m2.97s
sys 0m1.64s
As exepct, tr and fold is a lot faster, when it works! :) Perl wins
for "just working".
