Ok, I know it sounds bad but it has a good purpose!  Basically it
provides access to about 100mb of data.  It serves as a cache of
QuickBooks data so programs don't have to hit up QuickBooks which
would take many hours for some huge queries.  Normally the only
programs to use it are long running processes so the 5 seconds is ok,
and obviously much preferable to hitting up QuickBooks.
