Yeah, it's not that fast at all. I moved away from SQLite for one part
of my application because COUNT was slow. If the data's not in the OS
cache, it's real slow.

One possibility would be to maintain an approximate count in a
different table. That didn't work for me because my counts were time
dependent and depended on some RE filtering.
