GNU parallel is a shell tool for executing jobs in parallel locally or
|
|
|
|
|
using remote computers. A job is typically a single command or a small
|
|
|
|
|
script that has to be run for each of the lines in the input. The
|
|
|
|
|
typical input is a list of files, a list of hosts, a list of users, a
|
|
|
|
|
list of URLs, or a list of tables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
If you use xargs today you will find GNU parallel very easy to use as GNU
|
|
|
|
|
parallel is written to have the same options as xargs. If you write loops in
|
|
|
|
|
shell, you will find GNU parallel may be able to replace most of the loops and
|
|
|
|
|
make them run faster by running several jobs in parallel. If you use ppss or
|
|
|
|
|
pexec you will find GNU parallel will often make the command easier to read.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GNU parallel makes sure output from the commands is the same output as you would
|
|
|
|
|
get had you run the commands sequentially. This makes it possible to use output
|
|
|
|
|
from GNU parallel as input for other programs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For each line of input GNU parallel will execute command with the line as
|
|
|
|
|
arguments. If no command is given, the line of input is executed. Several lines
|
|
|
|
|
will be run in parallel. GNU parallel can often be used as a substitute for
|
|
|
|
|
xargs or cat | sh.</description>
