Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting While loop - how to run processes one after another (2nd starts after first completes, and so on) Post 302771342 by pathunkathunk on Wednesday 20th of February 2013 11:05:28 AM

Below is the terminal part of stdout following including the status of the usearch on the fifth file, followed by output of the following three commands, which I appended to the end of my script.

Unfortunately, it's not clear to me what information about usearch would be useful to your efforts to help me. It's a program that aligns sequences in one file to sequences in another file. 32 bit (the 64 bit version would likely do what I need, but it's expensive whereas the 32 bit version is free).USEARCH manual

Thanks for your efforts here.

Code:
ps -eo rss,vsz,pid,comm | sort -n | tail
ps -eo pcpu,pid,comm | sort -n | tail
