I would assume that any memory structure goes away when the process using it is completed.
And as I discovered playing around with sqlite, multiple potential users can be a *real* problem. If a second user tries to open it, it appears to work. It may even work if only one writes, but once there is a write, it gets strange.
In his book Using SQLite, Jay A. Kreibich says that SQLite DBs can be read by any number of concurrent users, but can only be written to by one at a time, with a further caveat that SQLite itself doesn't impose restrictions on writes, so preventing concurrent writes is, as with most files, up to the application.
