I don't know that this would be faster, but it should execute "mv" fewer times
(You'd have to figure out an appropriate number for -s)

Code:
xargs -s 1000 echo  < list | sed 's+^+mv +;s+$+ test/+' |sh -

If you have perl and the test directory is in the same partition, you might try
Code:
perl -nle 'rename "$_", "test/$_";' list

Returns "undef" if the program has never passed. "last_fail_time" The last time the test suite failed, in seconds from the epoch. Returns "undef" if the program has never failed. "mtime" Returns the mtime of the test, in seconds from the epoch. "raw" Returns a hashref of raw test data, suitable for serialization by YAML.
