Hello Few minutes ago i used sort -u for sorting big file(236 Mb). I have 2 core cpu(core 2 duo), but i found that sort use only one cpu(work in one thread). I think it is good idea to make option(or by default) for sorting in threads to increase performance on systems that might execute more than one thread in parallel. Klimentov Konstantin.
