in reply to Replacing Lines in 100 Gig file

Why not make copies of the thousand XML files, remove the root nodes from the copies, then concatenate the files?

Plus, what use is a 100G file anyways??

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
