Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Speed up extraction od tar.bz2 files using bash Post 302999118 by rbatte1 on Tuesday 13th of June 2017 11:50:33 AM

Can I just check that this files are local and not NFS mounted. If they are remote, then you are dependant on the network too, along with a dollop of memory to work on the file. You will also lose any caching that could help you.

If the files are local, then ignore me.
