Description
GNU Parallel
GNU Parallel is a handy tool for running jobs quickly and efficiently! So, what's a job? It's usually just a command or a small script you need to run for each line in your input. This input can be anything from a list of files, hosts, users, or even tables!
Why Choose GNU Parallel?
If you're familiar with xargs, you'll find GNU Parallel super easy to pick up. For those of you who write loops in shell scripts, this tool can often take the place of those loops and help them run faster by handling jobs in parallel. If you're using ppss or pexec, GNU Parallel often makes your commands easier to read too!
