IMHO, the goal would be
* remove the DBMS: we really don't need it and it's anoying for
  administration (for example, i'm really sad i can't use git
  to store the history)
* add a cache system which could be networkable because really huge
  sites could need a distributed infrastructure (i would choose redis)
* use robot and listname as prefix to gain the expected granuarity 
* don't check the state of the configuration file in the FS: use
  temporary files and "push to cache" mechanism instead.
rewrite the parser to speed the things up: a site with less than 500
lists (i think this is the majority of the sites) would run fast enougth
without any cache system.
