in reply to Compare 2 very large arrays of long strings as elements

Can you distribute them? At the very least, run each array on two different servers. If you have more servers, I'm thinking you could slice the arrays, distribute,run SuicideJunkie's algorithm, then recombine and run again. EDIT: whoops, I misunderstood. You are comparing the two arrays. You can't separate them, making my suggesting not so hot :)
