( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Sanity check: 150GB XML file??? Maybe it's time to rethink the problem?!

Assuming enough disk space and patience option 1 will work.

Option 2 also has its drawbacks, e.g. "finally save it" sounds to me like keeping the file in memory... Or do you want to edit the file "in place"? Anyway, with XML files this big you probably don't want a pure Perl implementation. XML::LibXML jumps to mind. I have happy experience parsing big XML files (10s of GB) Xerces.

Cheers

Harry

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.
