the system can be strained as long as it gets but a malformed database is an indicator that the VPS I/O subsystem is not responding correctly, or that the VPS gets brutally rebooted from time to time. There's nothing web2py can do. That being said, going into production with a maybe write-intensive app backed by SQLite is not the smartest idea around. SQLite is good but it's not a production backend if not strictly readonly.
