Calling the registry a database is technically accurate in the same way that
you might call an LDAP server a database, but it's conversationally
inaccurate. Typically, when people say "database", they're thinking
"relational database", which the registry isn't. You sure don't want to
treat the registry as a database. It's a hierarchical data store, designed
for frequent reads and infrequent writes.

When used with CF Client variables, you end up with very frequent writes,
causing the registry to grow (sometimes making the machine crash).
