You are finding files ending .xml and for each of them in the order that they are found, you are running your grep The issue you might have is that the grep command working on a single file on some OS version may produce no output if you use the -l flag.
Try adding /dev/null into the grep command so that you always have two files and grep may behave differently.
Note how the /dev/null is part of the grep command, i.e. it's before the \; and so it is taken as an input file. It is not redirecting output to as it is normally used for or redirecting standard input to be reading 'nothing' from.
I grepped for a string from a directory of very large files. This took quite a long time (not a problem). When I grepped for a different string from the same files immediately after, the output was MUCH quicker.
My question is, does anybody know why the second grep was so much quicker than the... (1 Reply)

xzegrep
XZGREP(1) XZ Utils XZGREP(1)NAME
xzgrep - search compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
xzgrep [grep_options] [-e] pattern file...
xzegrep ...
xzfgrep ...
lzgrep ...
lzegrep ...
lzfgrep ...
DESCRIPTION
xzgrep invokes grep(1) on files which may be either uncompressed or compressed with xz(1), lzma(1), gzip(1), or bzip2(1). All options
specified are passed directly to grep(1).
If no file is specified, then standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep(1). When reading from standard input, gzip(1)
and bzip2(1) compressed files are not supported.
If xzgrep is invoked as xzegrep or xzfgrep then egrep(1) or fgrep(1) is used instead of grep(1). The same applies to names lzgrep, lze-
grep, and lzfgrep, which are provided for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
ENVIRONMENT
GREP If the GREP environment variable is set, xzgrep uses it instead of grep(1), egrep(1), or fgrep(1).
