I'm using ActiveState Perl 5.8.8 for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread,and appear to be having problems with Tie::File. I am using the module as part of some code which compares two csv files. Both files are preprocessed prior to the comparision, which is ultimately just a file diff. I tie both files and process the arrays as required, then write out processed copies of the original files from the tied data - and diff these. The problem I have is that for relatively small files (a few 100kB) this is fine, but when the files are larger (a few MB) the processed files appear to have been only partially processed. i.e. the code that processes the arrays from the tied files has executed, but the untied file appears to have been only partially processed.
