I don't really want to update it myself, but under the section regarding the
database sizes being similar -- I've found that not to be the case at least
in the one very simplistic case I tried:
Using the following schema:
CREATE TABLE Foo ([Id] INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)
Inserting 100,000 items into a sqlite and firebird database, then updating
all 100,000 with an UPDATE statement, the final database size was:
SQLite (3.2.5) : 819,200 bytes
Firebird (1.5.2.4731 embedded) : 8,736,768 bytes
