Comment (by ramiro):

 Replying to [comment:6 mrts]:
 > `OperationalError: database is locked` seems to imply the code is
 thread-aware
 > [...]
 > So ''connections cannot be shared between threads'' seems to be
 incorrect -- Django ORM seems to do it's job quite well when timeout is
 larger with the sample code.

 I don't know if these mailing list threads and documentation on
 multithreaded access to SQLite databases are relevant, as gabor mentioned,
 the `mutiprocessing` Python 2.6 module (formerly `pyprocessing`) you used
 for your tests don't use threads but processes, see this SQLite
 [http://sqlite.org/faq.html#q5 FAQ entry]. It seems very logical the fact
 that if you are firing 100 (!) processes all of them trying to
 '''insert''' one record to the same SQLite database table, at least some
 of them will try to do so in a concurent way and you will get the failure.
