Dont how by how much precisely but it will be faster as your shellcode uses a lot more programs grep awk etc. to do the same thing which one instance of awk can do...mainly because forking processes is an expensive operation. How big do you expect your /etc/hosts file to be...dont you use DNS at your site.

check_backuppc
check_backuppc(8) System Manager's Manual check_backuppc(8)
NAME
check_backuppc - A Nagios plugin to monitor BackupPC
SYNOPSIS
check_backuppc [options]
DESCRIPTION
check_backuppc is a nagios plugin that reports on the status of BackupPC. By default, it monitors both archive and backup hosts for
errors.
OPTIONS
-a, --archive-only
Only check the status of archive hosts.
-b, --backup-only
Only check the status of non-archive hosts.
-s, --status-only
Only check the status of the backups, omit connection failures that are less than $Conf{FullPeriod} old.
-H, --hostname hostname
Only check the specified host. Uses hostnames that BackupPC is configured to use, can be specified multiple times.
-x, --exclude hostname
Do not check the specified host. Uses hostnames that BackupPC is configured to use, can be specified multiple times.
-w, --warning age
The days old at which a failure is considered a warning, default 1.
-c, --critical age
The days old at which a failure is considered critical, default 8.
-r, --reduce count
The maximum number of failed hosts for which to reduce reported severity, default 0.
-h, --help
Show summary of options.
NOTES
This plugin must be run on the same host and as the same user as BackupPC. An archive host only takes on a reported type of archive after
its first archive run.
EXAMPLES
/usr/local/lib/nagios/plugins/check_backuppc -r1 -w3 -c8 -b -x otter
Check the status of all backup hosts except "otter". Warn if a failed backup is older than three days old, return critical if a
failure is older than eight days old unless there is only a single failure. In that case, warn if the single failed backup is older
than eight days.
