Without seeing any code, my guess is that your "SQL script" (whatever that is) just threw
away the data, while your C++ code loaded it up into an in-memory data structure. The
comparison is apples to oranges.
You could probably improve the performance by using a more efficient data structure, but
again, you cannot expect any useful advice if you're not going to share what you're doing
now. You're asking "how do I get to California" without telling anyone where you are now.
