That's why I wouldn't want to use a database. The work involved, and the dependency produced, is not worth it in my case (IMHO).

I only have one writer, and one reader.

Data are written sequentially, and never modified. Write once, read many.

An ad-hoc solution I thought would be my best way to go.

I appreciate your thought on this.

Thanks,
