As others pointed out it's always better to process the file as you 
read it instead of slurping it whole into memory and processing the 
array.

In this case I'd suggest something more. If the file is CSV use 
Text::CSV_XS module to read it. That way you may be sure it's parsed 
correctly ... and that it's as efficient as it can be.
