I don't know anything about your use case or data really, but from the abov=
e I
already know I would shove this all into a database, adding tables with rel=

and mining data based on relations becomes trivial. More importantly, it al=
so then
becomes easily extensible without refactoring as your requirements change.

Just my opinion,
