We've had very good luck with CDB, Dan Bernstein's "constant database"
format.  Reads are unbelievably fast.

The only downside to CDB is that you cannot update a CDB file.  You need
to generate a new one from scratch.  Still, even that is quick enough that
we use it.

One of my colleagues benchmarked CDB versus Berkeley DB and the difference
was dramatic: http://www.dmo.ca/blog/benchmarking-hash-databases-on-large-data/
CDB was about 6-7 times as fast on random reads as Berkeley DB.
