As you have clearly guessed, making a big lexicon.tdl file is
just awkward.  The recommended procedure for large lexicons is
to use the lexical database (LexDB):

http://wiki.delph-in.net/moin/LkbLexDb

The page above offers basic documentation for installation and
use of the LexDB.  For further discussion, I recommend the lkb
mailing list: lkb at delph-in.net.
