Memory

I have been running a perl program, which handles the log files.
Though the system has 4Gb of mem, the execution stops well before citing Out of memory.I would like to know the reason, and also i wld like to know if there is a better way than using DBM for large data handling in perl

  • 4 GIG? Wouh... t'is strange... I can only imagine that you build a loop that never end... DBM is the only way to handle large ammounts of data, I guess.

  • Well, what if the memory lack is about RAM memory and the memory you have got 4 GIG is that of your HD? This is what I guess of it, and that there is some kind of loop in the program as Sebastian already said.
    Ciao,
