Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Is there a way to make this find job run as one process, more efficiently? Post 302075331 by jim mcnamara on Thursday 1st of June 2006 09:43:24 PM

You might be wrong in your thinking.

By creating two sub-proceses you are probably making the overall time of the job shorter. This is because both of those commands will spend time wating on disk i/o's to complete. When one process is waiting for i/o completion the other one can run.
