    OK that's good, but how can you get the values from this big file once it gets created?
      how can you get the values from this big file once it gets created?

      How did you intend reading your Dumpered file?

      Use eval (Note: 'pp' is equivalent to 'Dumper' in the following example):

      @a = ( a => { 1..10 }, b => { 'a'..'z' } );; pp \@a;; [ "a", { 1 => 2, 3 => 4, 5 => 6, 7 => 8, 9 => 10 }, "b", { a => "b", c => "d", e => "f", g => "h", i => "j", k => "l", "m" => "n", o => "p", "q" => "r", "s" => "t", u => "v", w => "x", "y" => "z", }, ] open RAM, '>', \$file;; print RAM pp \@a;; open RAM, '<', \$file;; @b = @{ eval do{ local $/; <RAM> } };; pp \@b;; [ "a", { 1 => 2, 3 => 4, 5 => 6, 7 => 8, 9 => 10 }, "b", { a => "b", c => "d", e => "f", g => "h", i => "j", k => "l", "m" => "n", o => "p", "q" => "r", "s" => "t", u => "v", w => "x", "y" => "z", }, ]
