I do not see anything wrong with your code but 21.5MB is definitely
not too big.
Try to add some more logging into the script (like printf( "%02d %d",
$line_count, $total_line_count) to a separate log file) to see
whether it really stops reading or just stops processing the lines.
You may also want to add an else{} branch to your if(){}elseif(){}...
and die printing $line_count if the script ever enters that branch.
