This would be very bad, if you were to lookup "foobar" you would have to do a seek on every byte.
instead, load up "part of the terms" in RAM, and the rest on disk sequentially... this is how the lucene index works (the terms index is in FST in ram, referring to terms dictionary on disk, so you do one seek instead).
