Perl DBI is from the ladies/gents that produce Perl (if memory serves). I am actually LOOKING for way to use that.

I may have said it at one point in time but it is actually a pretty decent system there were just some things about it that I didn't like which were cleaned up recently.

qglobals is amazing for information that requires quick calls and it is stored in memory.

qglobals are refreshed in memory whenever a client writes a new one and can be deleted just as quickly.

As far as DBI, I've written some pretty hefty systems using it and if you need different information stored in the table I recommend using it.

I will post some stuff for you shortly, troubleshooting an issue with Secrets.
