I want to emphasise that Dr. Hipp's usage of "round-trip" only includes the latency of _communication_ between the app and database in this statement, and excludes any processing time required by the database. If you were to interpret "round-trip" from an app-centric perspective (as in "the time taken to retrieve/commit data") then the statement becomes misleading because handling the data involves i/o, possibly even synchronous i/o, which is not "very very cheap" by any standard I'm aware of :) -Rowan _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list [email protected] http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
