recently I had the need for an archive format where file access could be mmap'd and with very fast random access to the contained files. not sure if I managed but if that can be useful to anyone: https://github.com/celtera/uvfs ; ideally i'd like to investigate how to serialize the hash map directly so that it could just be mapped too instead of having to recreate it on load.
