in thread Schwartzian Transform and memory allocation.

In that case, you could easily save some memory:

    @file_data = map  { $_ -> [0]}
                 sort { $a -> [1] cmp $b -> [1]}
                 map  {[$_ => (split /\|/) [$variable - 1]]}
                 @file_data;

No need to use a 759 41 element arrays if you can do it with just 2 elements!

Modifying my original code as per Abigail-II's suggestion dropped memory usage an entire meg. Abigail-II++.
