Sure, there are more efficient ways to implement such a mapping.
But you may not care. It will probably only a small fraction
of the time needed to render your page.

If you do care, you may perhaps look at the TinyTable2 product
(I did not do that; thus, it may not help you solve your problem).

When I had your problem, I would probably write a
manageable (through the ZMI) wrapper around a "BTrees.OOBTree"
object. But it is worth only for large  mappings (several thousand entries).
