[sqlite] Direct use of SQLite btree functions / performance

[Felix Schwarz]

Hi,

I have just discovered these old message on the SQLite Yahoo! Group:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sqlite/message/2115
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/sqlite/message/2117

This does sound very interesting! If I simply want to store binary  
data that I want to access via an index number again (and do this  
real quick), how big is the difference between using SQLite or its  
btree functions directly?

Does anybody have experience with this?

Thanks in advance!

Felix
