How do you know if you are not?

The point of an index is to avoid visiting every row in a table while
evaluating an expression, so generally the best index is one that scans the
least number of rows.

Here are some terms you can search the mailing list and website for in order
to get a better idea:

  explain query plan
  analyze
  SQLITE_ENABLE_STAT2
  sqlite3_stmt_status
