Yes, I am aware of this limitation / drawback, although I found out
that (at least for this specific web app I'm working on) carefully
splitting the data into small files & carefully indexing the content,
for each request my cgi script wouldn't need to load more than 100
or 150 Kb into memory...
So, in that case, it really looks like a competitive solution...
