in reply to Build a BDB cache quicklier

This does not answer the question asked, but you did ask for other solutions.

If you're just building a cache and don't need it to write it to disk, have you looked at memcached? It's simple to setup and has Perl bindings.

    It's also slower than BDB and would start out empty each time the program starts. Probably not the right solution here.
