This shouldn't be necessary unless the table has triggers. From http://sqlite.org/lang_delete.html : "When the WHERE is omitted from a DELETE statement and the table being deleted has no triggers, SQLite uses an optimization to erase the entire table content without having to visit each row of the table individual. This "truncate" optimization makes the delete run much faster." -- Matthew L.
