Hi again,

I'll just suggest once more that you let go of the idea that you must load all your data into an in-memory hash in order for your program to be fast. For one very fast approach please look at mce_map_f in MCE::Map (also by the learned marioroy) which is written especially for optimized parallel processing of huge files.

(As an aside, have you profiled your code? I would think that Perl could load data from anywhere (file, database, whatever) faster than a shell call to an external analytical program would return ... or does your program not expect a response?)

As far as your finding that

"parallelisation of the code after loading the hashes ... turned out slowing down the process or impossible because it would duplicate the hash"
... please see MCE::Shared::Hash.

Hope this helps!


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
