It's actually safe with recent SQLite versions. A lot of issues have been eliminated. SQLite know uses a mutex to serialize concurrent API calls from multiple threads. You have to know what you are doing of course. E.g. if one thread starts a transaction, then another thread issues some statements, they go into that transaction. > I am trying to use an in-memory database.
