Yeah, the MacOS default versions of the Unix text processing 
tools are really slow. It's worth installing the GNU versions if 
doing performance comparisons on MacOS, or because you work with 
large files. Homebrew and MacPorts both have the GNU versions. 
Some relevant packages: coreutils, grep, gsed (sed), gawk (awk).

Most tools are in coreutils. Many will be installed with a 'g' 
prefix by default, leaving the existing tools in place. e.g. 
'cut' will be installed as 'gcut' unless specified otherwise.
