Re: [sqlite] performance question: SELECT max(rowid) - 1

an explanation rather than just relying on my own speculation. Cheers guy Guy Hindell wrote: I have a fairly large table (10million rows) with a simple INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT field. Executing 'SELECT max(rowid) FROM MyTable' is very fast, as is 'SELECT min(rowid) FROM MyTable'. However

[sqlite] performance question: SELECT max(rowid) - 1

I have a fairly large table (10million rows) with a simple INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT field. Executing 'SELECT max(rowid) FROM MyTable' is very fast, as is 'SELECT min(rowid) FROM MyTable'. However, 'SELECT max(rowid) - min(rowid) FROM MyTable' is slow (apparently accessing every

[sqlite] DROP TABLE slower than DELETE?

Hi all In promoting SQLite 3 (still v3.2.7, so a bit behind the current release) for a new project I have been doing some performance tests and SQLite generally looks very good. However, I have seen one surprising result. My schema is simple, a single table with a simple autoincrement rowid

[sqlite] sqlite tuning for db writes?

Hi I'm relatively new to sqlite and this list but I have recently used it (v3.2.7) as an alternative to the db backend of an application which previously used SQLServer or Access as part of a proposed port to Unix/Linux. So far so good - the app works just as it did before with SQLServer.
