I came up with a file format for time-tracking, which lets me store the data in plain-text files in a human-friendly notation. I also built a corresponding CLI tool for evaluating the files on the terminal.
I’ve been using it almost daily for the past couple of years, and so far it has served me quite well.

The 5.3GB is an old value in the documentation from the web site, I have to correct that, thanks. I got it down to 3.5GB. However, you are right, this is a huge number of SHA1s. I once had another tool, filedriller (https://github.com/steffenfritz/filedriller), that I presented at iPres and used a Redis db for that with less than 1GB. Redis handles that better than Bolt. On the other hand, NIST changed the NSRL format and range (in the sense of years and systems) of the RDS sets. So I think the overhead is not too big. We have over 62.500.000 hashes in it. I think that's ok :)
