The shell scripts are almost always slower and the code is neither readable nor compact. bash for i in `seq 1 10`; do touch $i; done Perl and derivatives perl -e 'open F, ">", $_ for 1..10' perl -e 'qx[touch $_] for 1..10' ruby -e '10.times{|i| File.new i.to_s, "w"}' ruby -e '10.times{|i| %x[touch #{i}]}'
