grep -i -A 5 -B 5 'db_pd.Clients' eightygigsfile.sql This has been running for an hour on a fairly powerful linux server which is otherwise not overloaded. Any alternative to grep? Anything about my syntax that can be improved, (egrep,fgrep better?) The file is actually in a directory which is shared with a mount to another server but the actual diskspace is local so that shouldn't make any differ
