Yea, I saw this and some posts on the apple forum saying
NSInputStream is not the right way, hence the question, what is the
right way to analyze a very large file line by line.

I am wondering what the best way to read a text file, line by
line, when the file size is much larger than available memory.
I know there are helper functions like
stringWithContentsOfFile:encoding:error:, but this implies having
to load the entire file in memory. Google has not been of much
extra help here.
Thanks!
