Pavel, thanks, it does make sense. I don't think it's a huge problem, just
thought after your reply whether such pattern of reading is a highly
probable scenario or not. One real world example is a full table rereading
(rescanning) if a table occasionally has the size from cache_size +1  to
maybe 1.5*cache_size. For default sqlite cache size it's rereading of 2M to
3M tables. Not so great disadvantage to change the algorithm.
