If you do a test that shows sed -i is faster, could you post?

Using cat here is totally not needed.
Code:
cat $Full_file |sed "/$StaticIP/d" > tmpfile

Instead:
Code:
sed "/$StaticIP/d" $Full_file > tmpfile

^^^ doesn't work, i tried that first

   mv tmpfile $Full_file
done

^^^ thanks, using this ( bad thing is i've done this before Smilie)

Should be grep "^[[:alpha:]]"
^^^ This is correct in the actual script.

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
