Think about how you are going to do this carefully. It may be much easier to piggyback on someone else's solution. That'd mean a lot less code for you. I don't know if it would work for you, but sqlite might be worth a look.

Sqlite supports databases up to 2 terabytes in size and includes a surprisingly good cache system. Can you re-factor your code to use database records instead? Exactly how much speed do you need, and can a database solution supply it?

Thanks. But for my current app -- a quick-and-dirty C++ command-line tool --  i think it'll be easier for me to just bite the bullet and re-do the existing code, rather than to learn a new library interface. Call me stubborn. ;)

But sqlite may be useful for other projects. Thanks for the tip.
