similar but lesser case at work… I was given some 50 K records to analyze, I needed to perform some matches and the records came in flat csv files

I was told by IT that excel was my only option… after 4 hours of it crashing I gave up and did it all on WSL CLI commads, it took less than 45 seconds to execute
