This is after a minute run.. The txt files have UTF-8 chars too. A line is
maximum a few ten chars long in the txt files. All the txt files have UNIX
eol's. There is enough storage, enough RAM, enough CPU. I'm even trying this
with root user. The txt files are about ~60 000 000 lines.. not a big number...
a reboot didn't help.
Any ideas how can I use the "sort" command to actually sort? Please help!
Thanks,
btw, this happens on other UNIX OS too, lol... why do we have the sort command
if it doesn't work?
