Re^3: Combining Ultra-Dynamic Files to Avoid Clustering (Ideas?)( A DB won't help)

Care to offer some code for comparison?

Care to offer some code for comparison? I thought that the documentation was pretty clear. But here is a snippet using the older DB_File (because it is what I happen to have installed here): `use DB_File; my $db = tie (my %data, 'DB_File', $file, O_RDWR\|O_CREAT, 0640, $DB_BTREE) or die $!; # Now use %data directly, albeit with tie overhead. # Or use the OO interface (put/get) on $db.` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
