qsv table
is much faster than column -t
for formatting large amounts of tabular data. Probably not something people need speed from frequently, but helped my use case. xsv
didn't work for me due to issues with larger tabular data.
for i in {1..1000}; do cat /proc/mounts >> bigfile; done
time column -t < bigfile
...
real 0m0.326s
user 0m0.248s
sys 0m0.077s
time qsv table --delimiter " " < bigfile
