I am trying to import a very large set of data (6 Columns and 700,000 + Rows) of data from a CSV file as I am attempting to create a sonification of data.

From everything I have found online for Max is only a couple of variables and I need all six to complete my task... Is it possible to time and import these variables within the Max environment of would it be better for me to import and send them from processing to Max?

All rows are not needed right now but need a fair amount of them for the prototype I am starting!

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I have combed google and this site and didn't find anything I could think to alter, I am sorry if I have missed something but I can assure you I spent many hours looking before posting a question!!!

The coll, dict or jit.cellblock objects can manage collections of data: but with such a large data set I don't think they are viable options. If I were you, I'd probably investigate sql:

I am attempting to figure this out, I can read a mysql database and see the numbers in the message window however I am still working on getting a table or reading the numbers at a specific interval but getting closer!
