On Linux, at any rate, one ought to be able to make SQLite extremely
fast by adding RAM and tuning the I/O subsystem and the kernel, and
using tricks like memory mapped files, assuming the database in question
isn't too large. I'm assuming it's small, otherwise he'd pretty much
need a humongous database server and an industrial strength database
like Oracle or PostgreSQL.
