    That's tiny. But I don't load the main file into memory, only the other ones. I asked how big are the *other* files. If they're in the same range, you should have no problem.
      The other files can be from 2 lines to 4000 lines long. Depending on how many instances of the first field they have. But monstly only 1 file out of the 10 that would have such high number of lines.
        Should be ok. Try it, and write back if you have problems.
