It also depends on the synchronous pragma. If you leave synchronous on with a disk DB, you will see a huge improvement with an "in-memory". With synchronous off, there is not that big an improvement until you start inserting large amounts of data. You will then start seeing a slight improvement. Totally unscientific observation.

Compact flash as read by a USB port is a couple orders of magnitudes slower than system memory on a PC. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
