Not sure of your exact requirement - particularly whether there are dependencies. The "egrep" command can search for multiple messages in one pass.
I sometimes use "egrep" to eliminate known good messages ( egrep -iv ) and then only look at the exceptions.
Unless you only look at the logs every 10 days there is little point in reading old logs a second time unless the search criteria changes after the event.
I grepped for a string from a directory of very large files. This took quite a long time (not a problem). When I grepped for a different string from the same files immediately after, the output was MUCH quicker.
My question is, does anybody know why the second grep was so much quicker than the... (1 Reply)

The code is actually just a preprocessor -- I'm using another language to do the heavy lifting. But as it happens, the preprocessing takes much more time than the final processing... (3 Replies)
