An alternative is: clfmerge /var/log/apache/access.log* | webalizer -c /etc/whatever - clfmerge from my logtools package will use exactly the same algorithm as you would use if I gave you several sets of ordered cards to merge into an ordered set. So it's thousands of times faster than doing "cat * | sort" type operations and uses hardly any memory. clfmerge was written for situations where you have several web servers in a load-balancing setup and want to process all their logs together. But I also use it for single-server machines to solve the situation where web logs are only partially ordered. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page
