Assuming that memory won't be an issue, you could use MARC::Batch to
read in the record set and print out seperate files where you split on
X amount of records. You would have an iterative loop loading each
record from the large batch, and a counter variable that would get
reset after X amo

Hi,

use MARC::Record;
use Getopt::Long;
my $config = { output => 'input' };
GetOptions($config, 'input=s', 'chunk=s', 'output=s', 'max=s');
if (not exists $con
