To release as much memory as possible, just call
sqlite3_release_memory(0x7fffffff);
Or, if you think you might have more than 2GiB of
memory in use:
while( sqlite3_release_memory(0x7fffffff)>0 ){}
Please note, however, that sqlite3_release_memory() is
a no-op unless you compile with -DSQLITE_ENABLE_MEMORY_MANAGEMENT=1.
