What is the maximum size of SQLite database in Android?
The maximum database size can be approximately 1.4e+14 bytes (140 terabytes, or 140,000 gigabytes). Every database consists of one or more “pages”. Within a single database, every page is the same size, but different database can have page sizes that are powers of two between 512 and 65536, inclusive.
How big can a SQLite database get?
Maximum Database Size The maximum size of a database file is 4294967294 pages. At the maximum page size of 65536 bytes, this translates into a maximum database size of approximately 1.4e+14 bytes (281 terabytes, or 256 tebibytes, or 281474 gigabytes or 256,000 gibibytes).
What’s the realistic size of a SQLite database?
The realistic limit (of the size of some Sqlite database) is the same as the realistic limit for a data file. And that limit depends a lot of your computer & system. On my current Linux desktop I cannot afford much bigger than a 350Gbyte file (because as a rule of thumb I avoid having one single file eating more than half a disk partition).
How does the performance of SQLite depend on indexes?
Of course SQLite performance depends (like all SQL databases) a lot of the number and width of tables, their indexes, the SQL queries involved.
When to read a config file in SQLite?
Config files are typically read only on startup, changes mean restarting the application. (Not a hard rule, but intended use.) Settings from the DB can be edited via a GUI that is part of the application and directly updated using the already existing DB routines without needing to access some external file.
How can I edit settings in SQLite database?
Settings from the DB can be edited via a GUI that is part of the application and directly updated using the already existing DB routines without needing to access some external file. Changes made by the GUI can easily be used to raise events and the new values can be used immediately.
