Hi.
Perhaps I had more luck -- I didn't have to wait so long for a definitive answer. On 2 different machines, I had 2 large, similar, but different files of size about 1 GB. One machine had 2.5 GB memory, the other 1 GB. When I used diff, I got the message: Code:
diff: memory exhausted Exit status: 2 Code:
comm -3 file1 file2 You may need to glance at man comm to see what it is doing -- it does require sorted input files, and then presents unique entries in both files. Best wishes ... cheers, drl |
