Hi,

What kind of information are you looking for? You could look at the
internal Javadocs of H2, you can create them using ./build.sh javadocImpl.
Then there is the source code of course.

Currently, I think SQLite is a bit faster than H2 for simple operations,
partially because the virtual machine (Dalvik) doesn't optimize H2 as much
as a modern JVM, and partially because the storage engine of H2 is not
optimal for Android. I would probably use SQLite unless it doesn't provide
the features you need. Generally, H2 has more features than SQLite (even
thought SQLite does provide some features that H2 currently doesn't
support).

I'm working on a new storage engine, MVStore, and I think this will make H2
faster than SQLite on Android. It will also allow you to bypass SQL as an
intermediary language, so you can use the java.util.Map interface if you
want. See also
