All, I have already posted some messages some months ago concerning disabling the creation of the journal file. It seems that currently there is no way to configure SQLite to do this. Journalling, it seems, is an integral part of the paging layer, is this correct? My question is thus, has anybody successfully disabled journalling of the database file? If nobody has done this could somebody suggest how difficult this would be for me to do myself. Or would this be considered as an option for a future release of SQLite?
I ask as we find that journaling the database is just a performance and storage overhead for us. As I have stated before, our flash file system is 100% power-fail proof and thus the journalling of the database for us is not required. It just takes longer to save new records and the journal file uses up valuable space on our flash filesystem. I understand that journalling is important with most OS's to prevent possible database corruption but in our case this is not possible anyhow. If anybody can help me I will be most grateful.
