Ever since I've started using tdb http://sourceforge.net/projects/tdb which is the db used by pppd, samba, and some other projects, I've forever forsaken the others. Why? It's essentially very similar to gdbm, but there are some huge, critical differences:
1. it's tiny (20k .a, 26k .so) 2. it handles multiple, *simultaneous* writers 3. it's got a *very* simple API (very similar to gdbm) 4. it's rock solid. 5. it's *FAST* 6. tdb supports "in memory" db's (ie, hashes/dictionaries) I've used it for a few projects, and I've not only never been disappointed, I've been impressed with the speed and robustness. -- Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is two wolves attempting to have a sheep for dinner and finding a well-informed, well-armed sheep.
