how to create a very large persistent hashtable

Helo,

I have a very huge hashtable with over 500,000 entries. The key values are small strings. I cannot load such a big hashtable in memory. But I need to access the data very frequently and fast. Is there anyway I can make this hashtable persistent in disk and access directly from the disk? I do not want to use a database and I fast access.

I would you very thankful for any suggestions.
