Begin by doing:
PRAGMA synchronous=OFF;
That will determine if the problem is a slow disk or if we need to look
elsewhere. I'm not suggesting you deploy with the above setting -- just
use it for debugging.
You might also try:
PRAGMA synchronous=NORMAL;
PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL;
And see if you get better performance that way.
