Why does running 5 FTP scripts sequentially take longer to run (16 seconds)
than when all 5 are submitted to a subprocess and run simultaneously (7 seconds)?
I would think there would be some I/O contention.
There are about 10 files to be FTP'd in each script.
Although each script... (0 Replies)

cups-genppdupdate
CUPS-GENPPDUPDATE(8) Gutenprint Manual Pages CUPS-GENPPDUPDATE(8)
NAME
cups-genppdupdate - update CUPS+Gutenprint PPD files
SYNOPSIS
cups-genppdupdate [-h] [-n] [-N] [-q | -v] [-s ppd-directory] [-s output-directory] [PPD-FILES or QUEUES...]
DESCRIPTION
cups-genppdupdate regenerates the Gutenprint PPD files in use by CUPS, using the PPD files under /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint as tem-
plates. The new PPD file replaces the old PPD file under /etc/cups/ppd, but all the options set in the old PPD will be merged into the new
PPD, provided that they are still valid in the new file.
If no files or queue names are specified, cups-genppdupdate updates all Gutenprint PPD files in /etc/cups/ppd. Otherwise, cups-genppdup-
date updates all files or queues listed on the command line.
cups-genppdupdate does not update Foomatic PPD files or PPD files from Gimp-Print 4.2 or earlier.
cups-genppdupdate does not restart cupsd. cupsd will need manually reloading (or send SIGHUP) once cups-genppdupdate has completed.
OPTIONS
-h Show a help message.
-n No action. The program will run, but the old PPD files will not be replaced.
-q Quiet mode. No messages will be issued, apart from errors.
-v Verbose mode. More informative messages will be issued. Note that extremely verbose output may be turned on by setting $debug=1 in
the source, but this output will not be of use to the average user.
-s ppd-directory
Use ppd-directory as the base directory to read PPD files from. By default, the base directory is /usr/share/cups/model/gutenprint.
Under this directory, the PPD files are located in subdirectories according to language code and territory.
-o output-directory
Place updated PPD files in output-directory. By default, this is the same as the input directory.
-N Reset all options to their defaults (do not merge options from the current PPD file)
