Command-line Tools can be 235x Faster than your Hadoop Cluster
Another tip is using wget2 instead of wget if you're mirroring a site (but this is more I/O tip than computationally heavy) https://gitlab.com/gnuwget/wget2/-/wikis/home
Sadly, wget2 doesn't support WARC last time I checked, but wget2 comes with a `--max-threads` parameter that together with `--mirror` and `--tries` makes it trivial to mirror even the slowest websites out there.

Code review: Firefox Automatic Install for Linux
Understanding that there are three types of people, I have included three (3) different ways to install Mozilla Firefox. One of them is the personal installer, which does not require SUDO and does not install Firefox for everyone, just you, privately, isolated in your own little corner. You seemed to have missed that part. https://github.com/Linux-Is-Best/Firefox-automatic-install-for-Linux/tree/master/personal
