Hi,
I have written a some six scripts to move large files and re-size them. This has been done step by step, taking backup, creating the new files, merging the files, removing the temporary files created.
Since these files are around 500 MB, each step takes somewhere between 1 to 5 mins.

startpar
STARTPAR(8) System Manager's Manual STARTPAR(8)
NAME
startpar - start runlevel scripts in parallel
SYNOPSIS
startpar [-p par] [-i iorate] [-t timeout] [-T global_timeout] [-a arg] prg1 prg2 ...
startpar [-p par] [-i iorate] [-t timeout] [-T global_timeout] -M [ boot|start|stop]
DESCRIPTION
startpar is used to run multiple run-level scripts in parallel. The degree of parallelism on one CPU can be set with the -p option, the
default is full parallelism. An argument to all of the scripts can be provided with the -a option. Processes blocked by pending I/O will
cause new process creation to be weighted by the iorate factor 800. To change this factor the option -i can be used to specify another
value. The amount weight=(nblockedxiorate)/1000 will be subtracted from the total number of processes which could be started, where
nblocked is the number of processes currently blocked by pending I/O.
The output of each script is buffered and written when the script exits, so output lines of different scripts won't mix. You can modify
this behaviour by setting a timeout.
The timeout set with the -t option is used as buffer timeout. If the output buffer of a script is not empty and the last output was timeout
seconds ago, startpar will flush the buffer.
The -T option timeout works more globally. If no output is printed for more than global_timeout seconds, startpar will flush the buffer of
the script with the oldest output. Afterwards it will only print output of this script until it is finished.
The -M option switches startpar into a make(1) like behaviour. This option takes three different arguments: boot, start, and stop for
reading .depend.boot or .depend.start or .depend.stop respectively in the directory /etc/init.d/. By scanning the boot and runlevel direc-
tories in /etc/init.d/ it then executes the appropriate scripts in parallel.

/etc/init.d/.depend.boot
