The numbers you mention don't suggest problems.

Consider your indexes carefully.  MySQL makes up temporary indexes cleverly if 
you don't declare appropriate ones, and it maintains them until the server 
process quits [1].  Consequently failing to declare any indexes at all does 
very little harm.  SQLite3 has no server process, makes up temporary indexes 
for each separate command, and destroys them afterwards.  So failure to make 
appropriate indexes causes it to be very slow.
