I've been doing some reading lately about threading (Posix threads) and I'm really curious about a couple things that I've read. I'm not sure if many people here have threading experience, but I thought it would be nice to be able to discuss some questions about it.

Hi All,
Here's my question
I have a 385 MB file containing 5,000,000 records.
I need to read from the file and load into a table.
Initially i thought of doing it in a single thread (execution of a single program) but when calculated accounted 16 hours of time on a standard benchmark.
Hence... (5 Replies)

utime
UTIME(2) Linux Programmer's Manual UTIME(2)NAME
utime, utimes - change access and/or modification times of an inode
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <utime.h>
int utime(const char *filename, struct utimbuf *buf);
#include <sys/time.h>
int utimes(char *filename, struct timeval *tvp);
DESCRIPTION
utime changes the access and modification times of the inode specified by filename to the actime and modtime fields of buf respectively.
If buf is NULL, then the access and modification times of the file are set to the current time. The utimbuf structure is:
struct utimbuf {
time_t actime; /* access time */
time_t modtime; /* modification time */
};
In the Linux DLL 4.4.1 libraries, utimes is just a wrapper for utime: tvp[0].tv_sec is actime, and tvp[1].tv_sec is modtime. The timeval
structure is:
struct timeval {
long tv_sec; /* seconds */
long tv_usec; /* microseconds */
};
RETURN VALUE
On success, zero is returned. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
Other errors may occur.
EACCES Permission to write the file is denied.
ENOENT filename does not exist.
CONFORMING TO
utime: SVr4, SVID, POSIX. SVr4 documents additional error conditions EFAULT, EINTR, ELOOP, EMULTIHOP, ENAMETOOLONG, ENOLINK, ENOTDIR, ENO-
LINK, ENOTDIR, EPERM, EROFS.
