Thread: Failure Sorting Large Files


i've been trying sort large files, on order of 15gb in size. these have unique records, files should not shrink once sorted.

running sort command on 80gb disk 60gb free, got following error:

sort: write failed: /tmp/sortz8ys8x: no space left on device
sed: couldn't write 121 items stdout: connection reset peer

try splitting file smaller pieces, sort them , write code collate files, seems me sort program should hell of lot more robust this.

suggestions?

argh! rtfm. /tmp drive has 8gb. i'm rerunning sort using -t point 80gb drive.
