Sticking information into a RDBMS is a good idea in my experience, here's some reasons:
On the other hand, sometimes throwing things in a full-blown RDBMS is overkill, and Perl hashes are very very fast. So, like many things it depends on your situation. I really think that knowing both ways of storing data is extremely valuable, it's part of fully grokking TIMTOWDI. :) "There's lots of functionallity in relational databases that can be leveraged against. (Aside: any English whizzes like to correct or corroborate my use of 'leveraged' there?)" Don't end a sentence in a preposition without mentioning to the object of the preposition! To quote Winston Churchill, "This is the kind of impertinence up with which I shall not put." :) If I were to re-write your sentence, I would write somethng like this: Relational databases have a lot of functionality that can be leveraged to speed up development.
