Igor, how about simple test? Normalized database is big and slow. $ time ./test_norm_idx.tcl real32m54.978s user32m14.885s sys 0m39.842s $ time ./test_idx.tcl real7m19.005s user6m55.226s sys 0m11.717s $ ls -lh *db 2,1G test_idx.db 7,1G test_norm_idx.db test_idx.tcl

[sqlite] Feature request: extend the IN operator

Is it possible to support construction like to where x IN "1 2 3" There are a lot of situations when is very useful to store list of identifiers in table field. I know about the intarray virtual table but it's need constructor/destructor calls (and produce segfaults with the autorizer function).
