Run a test skipping the awk process and see how much faster your
process gets.  AWK may be a versatile tool, but it is *REALLY* slow -
and you're invoking it 1100 times to boot...

Just saw your post so haven't actually run your suggestion yet, but
are you suggesting some other way of getting the job done that awk is
doing?

Or do you mean it is unecessary?
