I was just talking about regular on disk SQLite databases. In terms of priming the pump, you can just open/read/close the whole database file which will cause the database to be in the operating system cache buffers, or just let SQLite do its thing. For anyone who is curious about what Martin is referring to, SQLite does support the database file being memory (although it isn't a file at that point). It has a fake filename of :memory:. As an example you can copy the table 'example' to memory using: ATTACH ':memory:' as memdb; CREATE TABLE memdb.memexample AS select * from example; As with Python, all this stuff is premature optimization. Get it working right first and then try tweaks to improve performance.
