in thread Optimizing Iterating over a giant hash
There is, on the one hand, a Core-Module Called FileDB, wich enables you to ,simply saying, put a HASH on disk, but every access to the HASH then is a Filesystem-I/O operation (wich means it is slow).
There is another Module at CPAN, called BerkeleyDB, but the documentation has many TODOs in it.
