too slow about cynical HOT 2 CLOSED

can you provide details about your setup? how large are the corpora, how much memory do you have (and is it using? is your disk swapping?)?

in general, increasing $batchsize is the way to increase throughput. the default is:
$batchsize = POSIX::ceil( sqrt($num_lines_for_bestword) );

there are other ways of reducing memory usage [namely, increase $mincount], in case your speed comment is actually about running out of memory and causing endless swapping.
