Sorting Help!!!

[kevin r]

Hello,

I am having problems with the sort routine. I am writing a script that parses very large firewall logs. At one point during the script I end up with a very large array containing all of the destination udp and tcp port numbers. This array can be up being over 100,000 entries. I am trying to sort with the following:

@sortedPortArray = sort(@portArray);

It works, but I could crawl up under my desk and take a nap before it will finish. Is there a faster way to sort? Thank you in advance for your help.


Kevin
