Yes, things are very tight on all of our products over here as well! I would like to know what causes a bloated file.

How would this change in 3.0? > SQLite is very storage efficient in the common case. In a typical table, SQLite will use about 4 or 5 bytes of disk space for every 3 bytes of actual data stored. Put another way, about 60% to 75% of an SQLite database file is the actual data being stored and the other 40% to 25% is overhead. If you have an example where the overhead is significantly larger than this, I'd be interested in seeing it. The new version 3.0 file format is anticipated to reduce overhead by about 5%. YMMV, of course. -- D.
