Sorry, I am not talking about the limitations of the system in our side, but end user who uses our software. I want the tool to be run at its best on a low end machine also. I don't want the capabilities of a data base here. Just want to store data, search for presence, remove it when there is no more use of it. Surely I will check out BerkeleyDB. The data set must be in ram, because the total size of it is very small. (Few maga bytes) I just want to spped up the search, which is done millions of times.
