in thread perl io and linux issues

I can do a read, run a split over it to extract lines and it will still be faster than the equiv no of readlines under linux 2.2.x. Of course I have to do a bit of work to catch broken lines, buts thats little perf penalty. If I don't do a split and use s/// over the string its a lot faster
