Eduardo is right at this point I also do not believe in performance  
impacts but for data manipulation and processing a db would be nice.
In our case we are using the data generated by milter-greylist for  
building white and blacklists and detecting other possible spam  
sources so a native db backend would be much more comfortable.

It´s much easier to handle the config in a single db or directory.  
Normally we generate the configs out of db/directory data but in some  
cases just in time changes are usefull and so a single db/directory  
would be nice to have.
