Probably my favorite non-POSIX tool that I insert into my pipelines whenever anything takes more than a few second. I find it super helpful to avoid premature optimization. If I can quickly see that my hacked together pipeline will run in a few minutes and I only ever need to do that once, I'll probably just let it finish. If it's going to take a few hours, I might decide it's worth optimizing. It also helps me optimize my time. If something is going to finish in a few minutes, I probably won't context switch to another major task. However, if something is going to take a few hours then I'll probably switch to work on something different knowing approximately when I can go back and check on results. |
