Actually I think you can drop the index on just rate.

I would get rid of your separate columns for day, month and year and use 
the Sqlite date format and use an index on it.

Wow!  Thanks, Jeffrey and Richard!  Just adding the index dropped the query
time down into the 3 second range.
These two versions had a similiar effects:
CREATE INDEX idx1 ON settings(rate, year, month);
CREATE INDEX idx1 ON settings(rate);
I'll experiment with this whole new world of INDEX and maybe I can get it
down even further.  Thank you!

Try creating an index on settings(rate)
