We present a scalable technique for the simulation of collider events with multi-jet final states, based on an improved parton-level event file format. The method is implemented for both leading- and next-to-leading order QCD calculations. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the I/O performance and validate our new framework using Higgs-boson plus multi-jet production with up to seven jets. We make the resulting code base available for public use.
