in reply to Re: Using less memory with BIG files
in thread Using less memory with BIG files

So from what i see, i should be taking the IDs from the Pfam-A.seed file and putting them in a hash. but there's two parts to the important info from the Pfam-a.seed file. the first is the ID, the second is the group name. There's like a 1000 groups in the file, and several million IDs in the first file. Wouldnt memory be a problem?

Ok to be 100% honest, I don't fully understand everything going on now. Would you mind guiding me a bit here? Sorry, but I only learned started Perl recently
