I have Mysql table with customerid (big int) & customer_unique_key
(varchar )

I have a php script that needs to upload customers into groups.
The customer_unique_key will be uploaded and all the customerids
should be entered to a new table.

Initially My script was doing a per-record query to extract
customerid and print.
But this turned out to be toooo slow , since the upload file may have
upto a million records.

Now I modified the script to read all customer_unique_key ->
customerid as key value pairs into an array
This works fine and fast , but hogs the memory and crashes whenever
the number of records crosses around 3-4 million.


What is the best way I can implement a hash lookup ? Should I use a
CDB library ?
