in thread DB_File vs flat file in terms of speed
Hi John
My apps have 100k entries
In flat its looks like this(matched users):
3052002:1054002
3052002:2050002
1054004:2050002
1054004:1054002
and its size is 4M
but when i use SDBM like this:
$all_match{'3052002:1054002'}=1;
$all_match{'3052002:2050002'}=1;
$all_match{'1054004:2050002'}=1;
$all_match{'1054004:1054002'}=1;
The file size gets to 1G
any idea how can i get it smaller?
Thanks
Eyal
