Yes. The serialisation isn't the problem - it's the tidying up afterwards. While I'm actually using YAML for the serialisation dump of the array entries, I could quite easily swap it out for PStore if it turns out that transactions become vital. I might do that anyway - PStore's mature, and my code isn't :-) -- Alex
