I don't think 8% is a big deal considering the safety it offers
a variety of programs when used as a shared library or the fewer
false bug reports you'd receive if thread-safe was the default.
Does anyone know if Mac OSX ships with a thread-safe sqlite3 system
library? I'd be surprised if it were not.
