I noticed that you used a lot of external utilities like cat, grep, awk, cut when most of these tasks can be done by shell built-ins.

Always use shell built-ins where ever possible, it will help significantly improve the performance of your script.

I'm not sure if I understood your requirement correctly, but see few corrections and suggestions below:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

while read s_id_1 s_id_2
do
        FLAG=0
        while read b_id_1 b_id_2
        do
                if [ $s_id_1 -eq $b_id_1 ]
                then
                        print "The value in small file is $s_id_2 and in big file is $b_id_2"
                        FLAG=1
                fi
        done < BigFile

        [ $FLAG -eq 0 ] && print "Cannot find a match for $s_id_1"

done < SmallFile

NAME
XmScaleSetTicks -- A Scale function that controls tick marks SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Scale.h> void XmScaleSetTicks( Widget scale, int big_every, Cardinal num_medium, Cardinal num_small, Dimension size_big, Dimension size_medium, Dimension size_small); DESCRIPTION
XmScaleSetTicks controls the number, location, and size of the tick marks on a Scale. Each tick mark is a SeparatorGadget oriented perpen- dicular to the Scale's orientation. For example, if the Scale is oriented horizontally, the tick marks will be oriented vertically. If you specify tick marks for a Scale and then change the Scale's orientation, you will have to do the following: o Remove all the tick marks. To remove tick marks from a Scale, you must destroy (with XtDestroyChildren) the SeparatorGadget tick marks. The first two children of a Scale are its title and scroll bar, and all additional children are tick marks. o Recreate the tick marks by calling XmScaleSetTicks. scale Specifies the Scale widget ID that is getting the tick marks. big_every Specifies the number of scale values between big ticks. num_medium Specifies the number of medium ticks between big values. num_small Specifies the number of small ticks between medium values. size_big Specifies the size (either width or height) of the big ticks. size_medium Specifies the size (either width or height) of the medium ticks. size_small Specifies the size (either width or height) of the small ticks. For a complete definition of Scale and its associated resources, see XmScale(3). RELATED
