Large Caches - How Stateful?

Can I improve inefficiencies with using Storable freeze/thaw on 2-6MB hashes 
assuming that all data in the hashes are necessary (for each session) and 
changing every-so-often?

--> Is it possible to create an apache variable at server start-up that can be 
referenced read/write by all forked children allowing concurrent updates to 
the database and memory?

(I hear the crowd shouting: "yea, it's called a database, Bill!")
