Maybe you're running out of memory. Your perl script may be reading too
much into memory.
When using the perl DBI module, I get the impression that the perl script
reads in all the results when you do
$cursor->execute
I don't know if there are any ways around this. It can be a bit
inconvenient if the result is large ;).
Cheerio,
