Hi.

In addition to posting numbers instead of the very subjective really huge time (to me, that time might be a life expectancy, say 80 years), it's always useful to see some comparisons, like the results of command time wc <your-file-name>, time grep 'e' <your-file-name>, etc.

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

1.2 million records? How large was that in bytes?

This does seem oddly slow, if the records are as you've shown them, about 100 bytes each, that'd be about 120 megs.
