Maybe so, SR, but adding rows is going to affect any approach.  The problem is 
to retrieve and unless you prepare for and plan for retrieval, you will not be 
successful overall.

Of course restricting the number of records that can be added will have the 
positive effect of significantly reducing the number of records that can be 
retrieved.  That is why I have always advocated content-addressable storage.  
Content-addressable storage completely eliminates the need for data and most 
metadata and improves processing speeds by orders of magnitude ... all for 
very, very, very low cost (no cost, really).
