"SQLite allows multiple processes to have the database file open at
once, and for multiple processes to read the database at once. When
any process wants to write, it must lock the entire database file for
the duration of its update. But that normally only takes a few
milliseconds. Other processes just wait on the writer to finish then
continue about their business."

So... concurrency for reading? Yes, so long as nothing's trying to
write to the DB file. Concurrency for writing? Nope.
