Hi, I've created a sqlite database with about 140 MB filesize which is going to be shipped on cdrom. The database is read by a java application. I made some rought speed comparision between the database being on cdrom and on hard disk. On startup a tree is filled with data from two tables. When reading the data from disk it takes about 5 sec., but reading it from cdrom it takes 100 sec. (the cdrom is a less than 1 year old modell).
I wonder if there is any way to speed up reading the data from cdrom. One of my ideas is to change the way the database is created in order to place data in a particular table in blocks near to each other. Currently, all tables are filled in parallel, meaning that records of a particular table are inserted during the whole database creation. I suspect this leads to datablocks spilled over the whole file which increases access time. Would it help to create one table at a time?
