I was parsing some logs. It took ages. Eventually I realised that I was fetching the gigabytes umpteen times from a remote machine. Oops. I have a stupid amount of RAM. If I fetch them once to a huge RAM disk, I can do parsing in seconds rather than hours.

Edit: Stupid amount of RAM on my work computer, that is - at home it's stupid for the opposite reason.
