mzedeler,
missed the criteria that each first line must begin with 100

I think you also missed the criteria about splitting a 10GB into 1 GB chunks. Also, in the OP's own words

"I’m not a Perl guy so excuses my ignorance… I’m the database ETL guy. Not sure if perl is the right choice either."

I think your code refs and closures are cool but I am not sure they will be of much benefit to the OP if they need to tweak anything. I don't want this to come off as an admonishment, I am just doubtful that the OP could take your code and run with it.

Cheers - L~R
