Greetings,

I'd like to start off by letting you know there is 
no such thing as too much advice on this end, so feel
free to write me a book if you have the time.

Attatched is a module I wrote (NameSplitter1) that
takes a full name field and splits it into
prefix,firstname,
middlename,lastname,suffix, and even later to include
job titles.

Ive had the opportunity to run this module against
hundreds of data bases as I wrote it specifically
because we need it where I work. You might wonder why 
some of the lines of code are there, believe me
a data entry clerk some where gave my module the need
for that line of code.

Any way this module has worked fine against files with
over a hundred thousand records but recently I've been
getting this error

[1] + Done(139) ProgramName.pl
  113 Segmentation Violation ProgramName.pl
  
I'm hoping you can figure out why.

Secondly the second attatchment includes an attempt
to speed up the performance of the first draft
(NameSplitter2) but it blows up after 4,000 records ?

Is perl a memory pig or whats going on here? The
arrays are not that big.

could you forward your response to this question or
questions to

Thank You
