These days memory is not an issue, but that does not mean we shouldn't write
good, efficient code that utilizes memory well.
While 1.7MB is not much, that is what is generated when I look at ~2500
files. I have approximately 175000 files to look at and my script uses up
about 130MB. I was simply wondering if someone out there with more
experience, had a better way of doing this that would utilize less memory.
