use locate or slocate, if present on your distro - this utility maintains an internal DB, does file indexing, thus search is much more faster.

Hi Experts,
I've been asked if there is a fast way to duplicate a file(10GB) and zip it at the same time. The zipped file would be FTP'd.....management is asking this. Maybe there is a better method all together? any ideas? CP will not cut it.
Thanks in advance

Dear Experts,
I would like to know what's the best method for copy data around 3 mio (spread in a hundred folders, size each file around 1kb) between 2 servers?

mlib_volumefindmax_s16
mlib_VolumeFindMax_U8(3MLIB) mediaLib Library Functions mlib_VolumeFindMax_U8(3MLIB)
NAME
mlib_VolumeFindMax_U8, mlib_VolumeFindMax_S16 - maximum intensity searching
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lmlib [ library... ]
#include <mlib.h>
mlib_status mlib_VolumeFindMax_U8(mlib_u8 *max, const mlib_rays *rays);
mlib_status mlib_VolumeFindMax_S16(mlib_s16 *max, const mlib_rays *rays);
DESCRIPTION
Each function performs maximum intensity searching.
It uses the following equation:
max[i] = MAX{ rays->results[j][i]
j = 0, 1, ..., rays->nsteps[i] }
where i = 0, 1, ..., rays->nrays - 1.
PARAMETERS
The function takes the following arguments:
max Pointer to an array of rays->nrays maximum values of the samples in each ray.
rays Pointer to an mlib_rays structure. The data rays->results are organized with ray number (rather than ray step) varying
fastest. Ray number and ray step are the output of the ray casting functions. The data might have values beyond the maximum
step on a ray. For example, rays->results[rays->nsteps[i]][i] on ray i might not equal 0.
RETURN VALUES
The function returns MLIB_SUCCESS if successful. Otherwise it returns MLIB_FAILURE.
