True. For small projects (less than a couple of hundred thousand records perhaps), I just keep data in RAM and serialize to plain text periodically. RAM is cheap, even 100 MB of data structures is practically free, and crazy fast. I like to think lesser external dependencies make deployment easier and crashes won't hurt you all that bad.
