It appears that you are not only reading in all the lines of the file at once, but then combining them all into one string. This is probably not a scalable solution.

Instead consider using while to go through the lines one at a time, processing the text and extracting the data you need in a loop.

The other thing I saw at a glance is that you are trying to use $0 as a regex capture, which will not do what you expect.

Edit: Also please place your sample input into <code></code> tags, as it's not rendering accurately at the moment and can't be used for testing. Please consider sharing an SSCCE which in this case would include a couple of sample lines in the __DATA__ section, the regexp you're using to extract the fields, and then the date handling code ... all in one script of 20 - 30 lines.


The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
