Sort of defeats the purpose of plain text accounting though. I think the
product would lose something special if it's in some non-plain-text format.
If it were to go this route, I think the better solution would be to try
some sort of caching.

For example, it could be interesting to cache files in a serialized format.
It could check to see if the file size or timestamp has changed (and then
invalidate the cache in such an event). This would give you the option to
move your older transactions into separate files (for example, a different
file for each year)
