Fastest way to list a file in a folder containing 800,000 files using wildcard
Hi, I have a directory with possibly around 800,000 files in it. What is the fastest way to list file(s) in this directory with a wildcard. for example would Code:
ls -1 *.abcdefg.Z or Code:
find . -name "*.abcdefg.Z" be the fastest way to find all of the files that end with .abcdefg.Z in this directory with 800,000 files in it. Any help or sugestion would be greatly appreciated. Thx Jerardfjay Last edited by jerardfjay; 07-09-2008 at 01:07 PM.. Reason: better description of issue |
