No. There is utterly no reason why you should create 5000 or 30000 text
files. While you are waiting to get a clue about databases, do it in
Python, in memory. It should only take a very tiny time to suck your
5000-fact file into memory, index the data appropriately, and do some
queries e.g. list all facts about "lion".
