Uri,

When I try to parse one of my raw files I get the following error:

Out of memory during "large" request for 536875008 bytes, total sbrk() is 8=
80640 bytes at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10/
File/Slurp.pm line 159.

Since you created the File::Slurp module I was curious if you knew what the=
fix is?

Thank you,

Chris

simple. don't slurp super large files. the article included with the
module says that. anything reading that much in will wipe out virtual
ram and such. slurp doesn't do anything special regarding large
files. if you read it with other code it would still blow up.
