GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel locally or
|
|
using remote machines. A job is typically a single command or a small
|
|
script that has to be run for each of the lines in the input. The
|
|
typical input is a list of files, a list of hosts, a list of users, a
|
|
list of URLs, or a list of tables.
|
|
|
|
If you use xargs today you will find GNU parallel very easy to use as
|
|
GNU parallel is written to have the same options as xargs. If you
|
|
write loops in shell, you will find GNU parallel may be able to
|
|
replace most of the loops and make them run faster by running several
|
|
jobs in parallel. If you use ppss or pexec you will find GNU parallel
|
|
will often make the command easier to read.
