Comment(by nickm):
I'm attaching a quick and dirty implementation of the format, with
indices. (I rote it on a car trip, so I didn't have endian7000's
implementation in front of me, and I wanted something to play with.) It
sticks the tables and index in one file, and the data in another, though
I'm still not sold on having two separate files -- if we do keep files
separate, we should do something to keep people from accidentally getting
thmem out of sync.
Also, this approach still needs C code. I'm going to suggest that we
start by just adding this as another format that we read into our existing
in-core format, and then only later add support for keeping the raw data
mmap'd for low-RAM environments.
endian7000, are you still interested in working on that?
