Re^4: a large text file into hash

well, since I make the hash once and I want to use it several times later, then I'd prefer to keep it in the hard disk for the later access. what is your suggestion in this scenario?

As I said, BerkeleyDB is the most recommended solution for disk-based hashes. Alternatives include MLDBM, SQLite_file, DBM::Deep etc. Or you could use an RDBMS (Postgres/MySQL/other). Perhaps via Tie::DBI. Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.	[reply]
