I have aquired several very large files. Specifically, CVSs of 100+ GB.

I want to search for text in these files faster than manually running grep.

To do this, I need to index the files right? Would something like Aleph be good for this? It seems like the right tool…

Any other tools for doing this?

    Done this with massive log files. Used perl and regex. That’s basically what the language was built for.

    But with CSVs? I’d throw them in a db with an index.
