> Yes, it would be better to have a single file, but it requires more
development work until we're there, and we won't see any results until
we're done with everything. Having a solution with multiple files allows
us to have quicker results and make more experience with keeping multiple
GeoIP databases in memory, which in turn may reduce the effort to come up
with a new single file format.
This means doing the whole file format dance twice. Not sure if this is a
good idea? I'm not sure what the next step is here :/
