Hello all.
We are seeing cases of slowdown when printing out files (our fileserver could be better).
I was wondering if there is any real difference between printing line by line vs. flushing out 1 big array, or multiline string. Right now, the scipts print out line by line. You can assume that the system's memory can handle it. Or in code:
...
print FH $f;
...
print FH $b;
...
vs.:
...
$printout .= $f;
...
$printout .= $b;
...
print FH $printout
Thanks.

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).
