in thread storing a large hash in a database

Interesting, may I know if the database would be deleted after the program ends or it will be kept in the physical memory. In the case that it is deleted can I force it to be in physical memory without deleting it?

    It is not in memory. And if you don't unlink the file, it remains on disk; and if you re-tie, you have access to it.

    In the snippet I gave, I unlink before tie'ing; because for my application, I want to start anew every time.
