Do One Thing, and Do It Well

This is the Unix philosophy: Write programs that do one thing and do it well. Write programs to work together.

The sort utility in GNU Coreutils (Linux) automatically handles larger-thanmemory datasets by spilling to disk, and automatically parallelizes sorting across multiple CPU cores [9]. This means that the simple chain of Unix commands we saw earlier easily scales to large datasets, without running out of memory. The bottleneck is likely to be the rate at which the input file can be read from disk.
