Depends on the type of data and what you want to do with it.

If you want to "dump memory", you need to serialize the data.
Have a look at QDataStream.

KSharedDataCache helps to to access information from several processes at the 
same time (like eg. the icons) and save memory.

Also you can write it to some xml or an kconfig/qsettings ini-a-like file with 
the advance of "less" access ;-)

Cheers,
Thomas
