Would this data be better stored in a database? To answer that you need to think about how the files are generated and used. If you look them up much more often than they are generated a database may be very worth while. If relatively small numbers of records change from time to time that may be another good reason to use a database. If you have control over generation of the current file that will make using a database easier.
