The LDIF code is quite oriented towards reading and writing to file handles, so it wouldn't be simple to change. Are there any perl classes around which can create a pseudo file handle with a backing string instead of a file? You'd get the overhead of going through the IO code, but you wouldn't touch the disk... Cheers, Chris
