Hi Scott,
Thanks for the information related to Performance tunning using PRAGMA.
My embeded app needs to be tunning too.
I have serveral questions for you.
Current I had these PRAGMAS in my app:
sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA page_size=32768", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA synchronous=OFF ", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA temp_store = MEMORY ", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA cache_size = 2000 ", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
Questions:
1) Do I need this : sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA page_size=32768", NULL,
0, &errMsg);
2) sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA synchronous=OFF ", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
is this the same as your : rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA
synchronous = 0;", 0, 0, 0);
3) sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA temp_store = MEMORY ", NULL, 0, &errMsg);
is this the same as your : rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA temp_store
= 2;", 0, 0, 0);
4) Do I need this : sqlSt = sqlite3_exec(pDb, "PRAGMA cache_size = 2000 ",
NULL, 0, &errMsg);
5) Also Do I need these two setting as you mentioned in your previous email
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA read_uncommitted = 1;", 0, 0,0);
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA locking_mode = exclusive;", 0,0, 0);
Thank you so much.
JP

Subject: RE: [sqlite] Performance tuning using PRAGMA, other methods
BTW, several PRAGMAS actually increase performance in my embedded app
case - maybe 15-30% depending upon transaction activity and the way I
structure transaction commits. Specific PRAGMAS that helped include:
//
// Synchronous OFF (0)
//
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA synchronous = 0;", 0, 0, 0);
//
// Keep temporary storage in MEMORY (2) instead of a file
//
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA temp_store = 2;", 0, 0, 0);
//
// Allow reads from uncommitted memory containing DB tables/records
//
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA read_uncommitted = 1;", 0, 0,
0);
//
// Exclusive access to DB to avoid lock/unlock for each transaction
//
rc = sqlite3_exec(*dbHandle, "PRAGMA locking_mode = exclusive;", 0,
0, 0);

There are apparently no folks with the experience to answer the
questions as given?

re: Q1 - Maybe (hopefully) someone will prove me wrong, but I think
that your question is too broad to be answerable (unless you're actually
attempting to assemble a collection of optimal values in all possible
situations for all existing pragmas... ;shrug)
re: Q2 - At the risk of sounding crass, tuning queries is, has been
and always will be the best way to optimize the performance of any
database. I've done a lot of tuning of SQLite and a half dozen other
databases, and query design is always what has the most impact.
Pragmas, #defines, API usage, etc. are always a distant second in the
race for performance gains.
