How about this?
This is sort-of indicative of the need for "database science" for embedded systems (where I'm loosely defining DBS as "dealing efficiently with data that is too large to fit on "fast" storage.")
You COULD (at least theoretically) read from an SD card and write to flash memory as a big array at the beginning of program execution (perhaps preventing flash wear by confirming that it isn't already there.) This would be rather more difficult than compiling the array as part of the program, and make for a slower startup, but I can imagine circumstances where it might be worth it. (this could be added as a "feature" at a later date, after the rest of the program is working with the compiled-in data.)
