My motivation for trying SQLite isn't to avoid a separate database, it's 
to reduce filesystem/memory footprint. If SQLite was abandoned only for 
performance reasons, I'm happy to spend time integrating it and then 
profiling/analyzing the resulting system to improve performance.

Thanks for pointing me at the IRC channels. I'll try to reach people there.
