So -- just to make sure I understand -- those *would be* features of SQlite, and therefore any lang. lib. interface which makes use of it?
I'm not sure if the amount of coding has to be that much more. And: I am unlikely to become an expert unless I am a neophyte first. I don't need to "beat the standard"; I am just afraid of ending up in a situation where I cannot possibly even compare to it (meaning the implementation is junk).Another disadvantage is that you have to spend time writing the code to do all that, along with writing tests, debugging, etc. Furthermore, if you are not an expert at this, in the end you might not actually beat well tested and optimised database software that is used appropriately.
