Dear Group, Thank you for your kind reply and teaching me some nice coding options. I would port your suggestions and see if it improves. Unfortuantely I can not share the code as it has slight propietary issue, but I was debugging the code on myself, I was seeing that if I write the outputs in the file then it is giving fast results, but if I print it to the console -which is a list of big size, but well even I print all the files of 1KB each I have 12 files only, why a print command would make it so slow? I have searched processed made big n-grams big calculations across even UTF-8 encoding data sets Python gave result in fragment of seconds.
