I've played a bit with SQLite recently and while it's easily deployed
(only one DLL and one database file) it seems to have serious
performance problems under certain circumstances.  For example, if you
have hundreds of database updates and wrap them all into one
transaction then it's quite fast.  If, however, each update has its
own transaction it crawls.  I'd investigate these things before using
it in earnest.

Cheers,
Edi.
