If performance is a consideration then perl is probably not a good approach. If your data is in a database table, which you are already alluding to, then you need a smart use of the LIKE operator as well as wildcards ('%', '_' etc). Details of what is possible within MySQL can be found here: MySQL :: MySQL 5.0 Reference Manual :: 11.4.1 String Comparison Functions
Let me know what you ultimately will use, because I find the problem quite interesting.

NDB_DELETE_ALL(1)					       MySQL Database System						 NDB_DELETE_ALL(1)

NAME
ndb_delete_all - delete all rows from an NDB table SYNOPSIS
ndb_delete_all options DESCRIPTION
ndb_delete_all deletes all rows from the given NDB table. In some cases, this can be much faster than DELETE or even TRUNCATE TABLE. Usage ndb_delete_all -c connect_string tbl_name -d db_name This deletes all rows from the table named tbl_name in the database named db_name. It is exactly equivalent to executing TRUNCATE db_name.tbl_name in MySQL. The following table includes options that are specific to ndb_delete_all. Additional descriptions follow the table. For options common to most MySQL Cluster programs (including ndb_delete_all), see Options Common to MySQL Cluster Programs(1). Table 17.16. ndb_delete_all Options and Variables: MySQL Cluster NDB 7.2 +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ |Format | Description | Added / Removed | +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Name of the database in which the | | | --database=dbname, | table is found | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | | | | -d | | | +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Perform the delete in a single | | | --transactional, | transaction (may run out of | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | | | operations) | | | -t | | | +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Run tup scan | | | --tupscan | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ | | Run disk scan | | | --diskscan | | All MySQL 5.5 based releases | +--------------------------+-----------------------------------+-------------------------------------+ o --transactional, -t Use of this option causes the delete operation to be performed as a single transaction. Warning With very large tables, using this option may cause the number of operations available to the cluster to be exceeded. COPYRIGHT
