Hello drh, Could you perhaps give us the rational for using TLS? How is it that TLS is needed on cases where you run out of memory? By using TLS you're essentially making SQlite thread aware where I'd prefer it to know nothing about thread contexts or whether it's running in a thread or not. How is TLS better than a simple malloc and free in this instance?
To me the proper solution would be to avoid using TLS in the first place since, you (sqlite) neither create nor destroy the thread.
