Your code would probably benefit from the usage of "find" and the elimination of repetitive tasks like expanding the date over and over again:

Code:
chDate="$(date +"%y%m%d%H")"
typeset -Z2 iCounter=0

while [ $iCounter -le 99 ] ; do
     find /your/directory -name "${iCounter}*.[tT][xX][tT]" -print > "ABC${iCounter}${chDate}"
     (( iCounter += 1 ))
done

I put an arbitrary end at 99 for demonstration purposes, adapt the script to what you really need. If this is not fast enough try backgrounding the "find"s by adding a " &" at the end of the line starting with "find".

I hope this helps.
