Among other things it is about 2 times lower than the current BDB
implementation.
There's some question [see adjacent message in this thread] about
whether that was measuring sqlite 2 or 3.
Will a custom database implementation be any faster? And will it
solve all the other problems, such as reliability, flexibility,
backwards compatibility, that sqlite already solves? Sqlite gets this
stuff right.
