Hi
do you think it’s normal that I'm facing OOM fault for comparing two small sized files (~200Mb and ~400Mb) each containing about 300K rows and length of every row ~1K characters
my command is grep -Fvf file1 file2
I have ~16Gb free memory
content of both files are English ASCII characters
I tested with 3 different versions of grep and all failing with OOM
