But what documentation does exist just happens to address this very question. See http://www.sqlite.org/draft/wal.html for the preliminaries. My day-plan was to expand that document later this morning (after I get through email.) WAL requires an enhanced VFS which is currently only available on unix. Shane is working on the necessary VFS enhancements for windows and should have them going soon. We do not expect WAL to be production-ready for many months. But it is adequate for development and testing work now. > > Is there going to be better concurrency on write transactions?
