in thread SMP and Perl

I just have a LOT of data to parse. it's a SIMPLE code relativly just takes a lot of power to run through that much data and I was hoping to speed it up. I think I have solved the problem thou. I'm going to rewrite it in c. Yes, I still love perl, just gonna do this one in c plus then I can compile it with more ease. Thanks guys.

    If you post some data and sample code you may be able to save yourself a rewrite. I believe the perlmonks record for recreational optimisation stands at several orders of magnitude. Good Perl can be extremely fast (in some cases only half the speed of C) and has some top notch optimisation tools.

    cheers
