Performance issue with 'grep' command for huge file size
I have 2 files; one file (say, details.txt) contains the details of employees and another file (say, emp.txt) has some selected employee names. I am extracting employee details from details.txt by using emp.txt and the corresponding code is: Above code is working fine and I am getting expected result. But, this code is taking too much time (I don't have exact time, more than 6 hrs, later on cancelled the script) while the file size is huge. As an example, I have details.txt of around 2.5GB and record count is around 7.5lacs and the emp.txt has 55K employee name. Can you please suggest any other option/ command which will be better to handle such huge file. Thanks.
