From: DKhosla AT Compaq DOT com (Khosla, Deepak) Subject: bash performance not so gooood 17 Sep 1997 11:31:31 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: "'gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com'" Hi, Just some comparison numbers on a large script I ran on Windows NT 4.0 SP3 using some different packages: Gnuwin bash - 2 mins 20 secs MKS ksh - 2 mins 0 secs ATT UWIN ksh - 0 mins 20 secs Any opinions as to why? Also, the CPU utilization was extremely high and memory usage by the sh.exe (sometimes several probably where there are pipes in the script) was around 5-6Mb each! Not a pretty sight. I was running on dual 200MHz Pentium with 128MB ram. Gnuwin32 B18 with the coolview patch (same performance without patch). Any ideas since at this performance, I would have to buy the UWIN package and I would prefer not doing it....
