On Windows, timing sending the results to a file: sqlite3 your.db "SELECT * FROM trend_data" > foo.txt
On a 2.0 GHZ P4 I get 50,000 rows/second, which is not bad considering it's a 5 year old machine and sqlite3 was not compiled with much optimization. Any new machine should be twice as fast. > time sqlite3 your.db "SELECT * FROM trend_data" | wc -l > > Run the command more than once, as the first timing is always slower. ____________________________________________________________________________________You snooze, you lose.
