in reply to Optimising processing for large data files.

BrowserUK++. Just one typo within snippet #4. I assume you meant to sysread() in 4096 bytes before split()ing it into characters.

    Indeed, that was a c&p error. Corrected. Thanks.

    One more small typo: GC collector in the paragraph talking about split. It's a pet peeve of mine, right up there with ATM machine and NIC card (although NI card might sound a little silly).

    Great thread BTW, I'm impressed by the level of detail to which you have pursued your problem.
