slow sqlite insert using the jdbc drivers in java

Question

I just inserted 1million records into a simple sqlite table with five columns. It took a whooping 18 hours in java using the jdbc drivers! I did the same thing in python2.5

Answer 1

If you want to further optimize, you can look into batching your insert queries together. So you can change 1 million inserts to 1000 inserts of 1000 batches.
