Out of memory on sort !!!!

[Derrick (Thrawn01)]

I setup an multidimetional array of data. ( I loading data base files into
memory.)
I wan't to sort the records by field 0
But when I sort this referenced array ( multidimetional array ) I get an out
of memory error.

There are 80 or so records and each record has 20 fields each field varies
but none are larger than 20 char.

Why am I getting an out of memory I have 10mb of free RAM!! And plenty of
swap space!!
OR a better question would be. can I do this differently? if so. how ?

Any help would be VERY much appreciated!!!


@sorted = sort { $data[$a] [0] <=> $data[$b] [0] } @data;

        print $cgi_obj->header;
      print $cgi_obj->start_html($theatre);
        print "<table border=1 width=500>\n";

foreach $array_ref (@sorted)
{
        print @$array_ref;
}

        print "</table>\n";
