I have about 10 csv files I need to open to access data. It takes a lot

you guys think?
grep foo whatever.csv | php ./script.php
While that could work if the server is set up to allow you to run system
calls, but you don't find that available outside of test environments.
Also depending on the file sizes, you'll see some differences.
