well if you need indexed lookups, then use a database

if you're doing "table scan" processing of entire datasets, sure just-a-bunch-of-files would work too.

Databases can be surprisingly fast for things like that, since high performance file i/o is full of tricky/annoying stuff that databases have already optimized for.
