I had a similar problem and it was the antivirus (win 7 prof)... My table has about 63 million rows and a description very similar to yours... but now I use the same data for FTS4, etc... on Debian wheeze (simple workstation... and currently all ok...) example:
sqlite> select count(*) from parte; 62468241 CPU Time: user 33.214076 sys 2.160135 sqlite> select count(*) from parte where nome match 'castelo'; 3834 CPU Time: user 0.004000 sys 0.000000 good luck... :) t+ On Fri, Jun 28, 2013 at 9:54 AM, Christopher W.
