Subject: zargs parallelization support blows up with |&

Message-ID: <87lhe23psr.fsf@secretsauce.net> (raw)
Hi. I can use this to invoke a perl script 10 times, 2 processes at a
time:
zargs -P2 -i -l1 `seq 10` -- perl -e 'sleep 20' {}
This works ok. However, when I do the same thing, but filter stdout and
stderr for some output, then ALL the processes are invoked at the same
time, not just 2 at a time like I asked:
zargs -P2 -i -l1 `seq 10` -- perl -e 'sleep 20' {} |& grep x
I don't know if this is a bug or an expected consequence of some
internal implementation details, but this is a really nasty failure
mode.
Thanks for looking.
dima
