Indeed. And if you can/aren't already, use a binary plist. And load
the data in a background thread, to keep the UI snappy.
Without any additional information, I would suggest instead using Core
Data and a SQLite store. This will allow you to load your data on-
demand. (There may be reasons why using it may not be appropriate
here, but in general if you're dealing with any reasonable size
dataset in a pure Cocoa application, you should typically be using
Core Data.)
