US/Import.pm  view on Meta::CPAN

The import process can take up huge amounts of RAM. Be forewarned. If
anyone really needs it, the data cached in memory by the import process
could be buffered to disk, but this would slow down the import process
considerably (I think). Contact me if you really want to try this --
it might be faster for you to just download a binary version of the
fully imported database. 

Right now, I can't afford to make the full 750 megabyte database freely
downloadable from my website -- the bandwidth charges would eat me
alive. Contact me if you can offer funding or mirroring.
