in thread Loading Large files eats away Memory

this doesn't work for me.. it takes up 56MB when we tie it, but then it seems the sequential access to 100_000 etc, eats memory along the way.. by the <STDIN> line my perl is on 95MB.. read and write seem to eat separately - if I'm evil and ask for $lines[-1] and then write to it, it gets up to 200MB - worse than splitting the slurp...

How long are the lines in your file? Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal? "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
