I push sqlite3 to extremes on NFS and there have been challenges but all considered it is quite remarkable how well it performs. As I mentioned in a previous email the built in timeout mechanism in sqlite3 seems to tie up the database and using shorter timeouts and delaying a short while before trying again really seemed to improve throughput. Overall I'd say that be cautious but don't hesitate to keep sqlite3 in your tool chest even if you have to work on NFS. Note that the issue I'm seeing is happening with no NFS. -- Matt -=- 90% of the nations wealth is held by 2% of the people. Bummer to be in the majority...
