Bryce,
I stand by my statement, well sort of...

I should have said harder to parse than INI files. I realize it's not hard. It just takes a bit more code and as such also has a greater probability of contention.

I know size is a limitation but good planning and coding can overcome that.

Where INIs shine is when async data needs to be written.
