Try this and tell me if that's ok:

  mkdir test
  cd test
  man grep >test.txt
  touch t.t
  grep -r "," * >t.t
  ls -l

If there is no man page for grep installed on your system
then copy a text file you have (should be > 16 KB) to test.txt
and try the last 3 steps above.

If grep takes longer than 2 seconds or so then you better press CTRL-C !  :-)
