    Thanks for the suggestion... My experience as well as this PDF would seem to indicate that CDB when working with read-only data (as I am here) is the fastest thing out there.

      Somewhat old, but DBD trounced it in this one. You can also adjust the cache size with DBD, which often makes it faster on systems with a lot of RAM.
