Hello Aviar,

Since you do not care about reliability, I guess that the settings described
for
fast database import could also apply to your use case as well:

http://www.h2database.com/html/performance.html#fast_import

For more information on each parameter have a look at:
http://www.h2database.com/html/grammar.html

e.g: For LOCK_MODE :
http://www.h2database.com/html/grammar.html?highlight=SET%2CLOCK_MODE&search=SET%20LOCK_MODE#set_lock_mode

Using the site's search function will also point you faster to parts of the
documentation,
as Thomas has done a remarkable job with the documentation as well.

Regards,
Panayiotis
