Hi,

I'm new to Racket, and i would like to know why sqlite queries are so slow in 
my test program.

This program imports some data from a text file into a simple sqlite DB. It 
takes 35s with the INSERT queries and 5-6s without them.

I've done the same thing with other languages, all do far better. For example 
with perl the same code runs in 8s with the queries, and 2-3s with them.

I know that startup and regex are (reasonably ?) slower in racket, but queries 
seems to be very slow.

Am i doing somethin wrong?

Thanks for your help.
