I have my ~/.gnupg keyring under git source control, which helps
creating and updating backups, and also having a history of the changes.
We actually moved to an SQL database to speed up things.  If you have
hundreds of keys with thousands of key signatures it is very helpful to
have indices; it really speeds up things.
This isn't the first time GnuPG prematurely optimized pubring access.

Years ago, I noticed that the certificate validation cache prematurely
optimized when the problem was a linear search of the pubring itself,
not the cryptographic validation.  Obvious solution at the time would
have been to keep a hash table of file offsets for key fingerprints .

Enjoy
