Absolutely. If you're writing Javascript software that runs in a Node.js environment, the "lstream" module will split input on any stream (including "stdout" from a child process) into lines as they are read into the process. You can then parse and process each line independently. If you _need_ one big array, and your dataset fits in entirely in the heap, you can assemble it trivially with Array.push() as it arrives. If you're asking about Javascript in the browser, there are myriad frameworks targeting the browser environment (e.g. jQuery, etc). You'd need to do whatever your framework supports for streaming big datasets from remote servers, but the basic principle is the same. Cheers. -- Joshua M.
