No, they have terrible performance for any significant amount of data. Much worse than a simple shared file approach. If you can break up your data into a hash-like form, you might be able to use Cache::FastMmap. It's a cache though, and will drop data when it gets full, so you have to keep the database as the master source and fall back to it for data not found in the cache. - Perrin
