Reminds me of a time at a large animation studio where I was working on performance issues with the in-house asset management system.
The asset management tool was fully commandline based, no GUI. An artist showed me what was involved in committing their scene: launch the command, type yes, hit return, wait about 30 seconds, type yes, hit return, repeat. I piped yes to stdin and it ran for 47 hours.
If you need a performance-optimized version of "yes" there are probably other aspects of your architecture you should look at first.
- masklinn 7y agoyes(1) takes a custom "expletive", so in the performance context it's usually used for flood filling in situations where e.g. /dev/zero or /dev/urandom are not appropriate sources for some reason.
- saagarjha 7y agoyes outputs newlines, though, which makes it somewhat annoying to use for flood filling in practice.
