I have a file that I am doing a ton of parsing on. It's has fake encryption (basically obsfucation) and I am doing a ton of listgets and going through each line and putting it into a structure. The thing is it's only a 1.7mb file, but it's bringing my pretty beefy server to its knees. DTS and Microsoft SQL server and even sql_loader for Oracle is not an option as I am basically decrypting this file. Anyone have any ideas on what i can do to make this process leaner?
