Using dash instead of bash shaves maybe 10 seconds off it - not really sure why the difference is so small, as I'd have expected more like 30 or 40 seconds, but it won't do anything about the 2 minutes spent inside the kernel (probably fork/exec, although I haven't measured it). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
