A couple of timings on my very old XServe:

/usr/bin/time -p exiqgrep  -xic
156 matches out of 789 messages
real         0.26
user         0.10
sys          0.10


/usr/bin/time -p exipick -xic
156 matches out of 789 messages
real         1.25
user         0.73
sys          0.13


So, as John says, exiqgrep is significantly faster here.

piping through awk doesn't seem to add significant overhead.
