- shiomiru 4y agoPOSIX sh also yields better performance, provided you're using dash.
- Beltalowda 4y agoI ran some tests some time ago, and the differences are pretty minimal unless you start doing comp-sci-y stuff in shell scripts. But for the type of thing that people typically use shell scripts for: it makes basically no meaningful difference.
