Just to inform you, I tried using the NSKeyedArchiver, but then found that my data would bloat from 4.5 MB to 11.3 MB, so that's not a viable option. Then I tried simply changing my source format to a tab-delimited file, but it's still loading way too slowly (about 20 secs, unacceptable). Tomorrow I'm going to just make my app work with a database.
In any case, learning how to properly encode and decode objects will prove really useful in future projects for me! Thanks everyone for all your help!
