You'll have the growth until the CACHE is full. That stays until you vacuum it. An initial large select could fil the cache entirely in one call. Then you'll have the very temporary memory of storage from the select -- but that should disappear as soon as you finalize your statement. So...you'lre not talking about unbounded memory growth are you? You just don't like how big it gets? We just talked about this a couple of days ago and Kees Nuyt provided the best answer http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/private/sqlite-users/2010-April/020850.html Michael D.

Under what circumstances should I need to call VACUUM? My server application seems to have a very variable memory footprint which I have tracked down to large SQLite SELECT results.
