I am already doing the prepare_v2/reset/bind_int/step/finalize set.  Before I 
do more intensive testing to confirm my earlier findings about not much time 
difference between using the separate statement compared with using exec, I 
want to confirm that it is true that I can't do bind_int on integer primary 
key.  

If I do "insert into functions values(?,?)" and use bind_int on the primary 
key, nothing is added to the table.  But if I do "insert into functions 
values(NULL,?)", then the primary key got autoincremented even though I didn't 
declare it as autoincrement and data got added properly:

const char *tablesCreateCmd =
// Create table for functions
"CREATE TABLE functions ("
"        function_id integer PRIMARY KEY,"
"        function_name varchar2(1000) not null"
");\n"

I am already using the latest sqlite3 source.

Thanks,
Bella

I'm no expert either in C or in SQLite but what Igor is pointing out is 
extremely important, because I have noticed myself the benefit of using 
sqlite3_prepare_v2() and sqlite3_reset() instead of just using sqlite3_exec() 
within iterations. And this is what SQLite documentation is talking about.

The speed optimization in my C++ program was incredible and the code structure 
was like this (just like Igor's recommendations):

sqlite3_exec(... "BEGIN TRANSACTION" ...);
sqlite3_prepare_v2();
    for (int i=0; i<100; i++){
        sqlite3_reset();
        sqlite3_bind_int();
        sqlite3_step();
    }
sqlite3_exec(... "COMMIT TRANSACTION" ...);


Sorry if this is too basic and you already knew it, but I felt like sharing my 
basic knowledge :P

You are doing something wrong. Are you re-preparing the statement for each row, 
by any chance? Are you grouping your inserts within a transaction? Show some 
code.

sqlite3_bind_value is only useful inside custom functions. In any case, your 
problem lies elsewhere.
