In my benchmarks, recent versions of BerkeleyDB, used with the BerkeleyDB module and allowed to manage their own locking, beat all available flat-file modules. It may be possible to improve the flat-file ones, but it even beat Tie::TextDir which is about as simple (and therefore fast) as they come. The only thing that did better was IPC::MM. - Perrin
