Sure.  But what Wez said was that it only affected you when you got 150
req/s, which is not true.  And I am being honest.  Over the period of
25000 requests, it is likely that you will have *more* than 300
sessions, not less.  This would further prove my argument.  300 Unique
users in 25000 requests to a PHP script is not an unreasonable
benchmark, it favors sqlite more than it should.

Yeah, its a 300% speedup to use files. :)
