Hi, I have some process if run in background, it always very slow, like:
$ ps f | awk '{print $1, $2,$3,$4, $5}' 124201 pts/13 Ss+ 0:00 -bash 29572 pts/116 Ss+ 0:00 -bash 29275 pts/63 Ss+ 0:00 -bash 22080 pts/14 Ss+ 0:00 -bash 11581 pts/2 Ss 0:00 -bash 2920 pts/2 R+ 0:00 \_ 2921 pts/2 S+ 0:00 \_ 2922 pts/2 S+ 0:00 \_ 108014 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108013 pts/13 D 3:17 cal_dist 108012 pts/13 D 2:57 cal_dist 108011 pts/13 D 3:00 cal_dist 108010 pts/13 D 3:17 cal_dist 108009 pts/13 D 3:18 cal_dist 108008 pts/13 D 3:15 cal_dist 108007 pts/13 D 3:00 cal_dist 108006 pts/13 D 3:15 cal_dist 108005 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108004 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108003 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108002 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108001 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 108000 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist 107999 pts/13 D 3:16 cal_dist I use something like echo"1 2" > idx.txt for i in `seq w 1 1 16` do cal_dist -i $i.in -o $i.out < idx.txt & done I am new to the xargs, so I don't know how to let it run in background. The waiting is going to kill me, I mean so slow. Thanks ahead for your suggestions, Best regards, -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
