Hi,
Your problem would have been solved by a reply posted(The code without using the inner loop). As you have told that you are going to work with huge data, It's better to use the DBM hash instead of hash. Storing more records in the hash, will take more memory. Using DBM hash the data will stored in a database file, and at the same time it is as easy as working with hashes. For clarity refer the following sample code to work with DBM hashes,
And I noted that you have opened all the files in the beginning. You can avoid that. open the second file after finishing the process with first file. This will help you to improve the efficiency and coding standard Instead of using print and exit, you could use die.
