ArndW wrote:That makes multiple readers a nonoption. How many columns does the file have and how long does it take to read the file when the only other stage in your job is a copy stage (or a peek stage)?
The maximum number of columns is 30,but i do have lookup,transform stages in the job.

Thanks,

How to read a text file of 5GB

Hi,

Can anyone let me know,how can we process a text file that is pipe delimited and is of more than 5GB in size.
Other than splitting the files into multiple is there any other way/stage through which the file can be read at one stretch.

Thanks,
Rajee
