I'm looking for a file based management tool that can handle two different scenarios.

The first is a collection of simple strings in FIFO order.
The number of strings is large: 10^6 to 10^8.

One option was to use Tie and a Berkeley database, but these tend to get rather large quickly. I was thinking along the lines of a file/directory structure. But I'm not sure.

Anything out there that isn't labelled BETA or ALPHA?


The second collection is a bit trickier.
XML files.
need to edit/munge data on the fly as part of the queue management process. The data isn't fixed from start to finish. Most of this would be appending a kind of localized log of events but more complex than simply management the state of the object/file.

Again, 10^6 but not 10^8.
