I think you're making a mistake there.  An RDBMS is the easiest way to
achieve what you want.

There is no simple way to share a Perl data structure between
processes.  Solutions like IPC::Shareable scale badly for large data
structures.  If you really won't use an RDBMS, I suggest you use
MLDBM::Sync.  If performance is very important, you can use BerkeleyDB
directly, but it will be more complicated.
