Yeah, you'd have to combine it with something like

In GNU Parallel 2018'Nuff said: https://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce
In Command-line Tools can be 235x Faster than a Hadoop Cluster (2014)Excuse me, I guess that post had no related github repo. I was probably recalling this repo: https://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce
In Redis re-implemented in RustWell, yeah, that's the easy way. :)
This is mostly to illustrate a technique of "parallel processing using fifos and split input" It's almost like a miniature mapreduce running locally. See also "bashreduce" (https://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce) which I didn't write.
In Unix: When pipes get namesInteresting! Wondering if there's something in the space of MapReduce/BashReduce (https://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce) where you could take this...
In Piping into and out of the cloud with skypipeYou might check out bashreduce: http://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce
In Ask HN: Sorting massive text files?I discovered some awesome in Netcat while playing with BashReduce (http://github.com/erikfrey/bashreduce/).
That said BashReduce uses the Debian version of Netcat which is different from every other version I could find. I ended up running Debian in VMWare to get BashReduce up and running on my Mac.
