I did the math once, came to the same conclusion, then somewhere in the last moths, forgot it and slipped into 32-bit mode for some reason :-[

Specifying AUTOINCREMENT should work fine for what I need.

If I actually specify AUTOINCREMENT, then an insert will fail when I have reached the max row value, even if there are unused rows in the table. So I don't want to specify AUTOINCREMENT.


The maximum rowid is 9223372036854775807.  You're going to take
a long time to reach that value if you start with 1.

Do the math:  If you do 1 million inserts per second, 24 hours
per day, 365 days per year, how many centuries does it take you
to run out of rowids?
