George Schlossnagle posted some interesting performance benchmarks [schlossnagle.org] on reading from embedded databases.

I was surprised to see how crappy SQLite was, especially in the wake of all the earlier raves I'd read about it compared to MySQL for SELECTs.

  I'm not quite sure I trust these, since GDBM is definitely not faster than BerkeleyDB when you use the right API.

    Interesting. In my experience, George's stuff is usually pretty good. Since I didn't run the tests, I don't know which API he used.
