*** 14,30 **** _: _One experimenter found that in one very specific (and artificial) case SQLite database files were 10 times smaller than Firebird database files. See below._ _:: The previous paragraph used to read: "One experimenter found that ! SQLite database files where 10 time smaller than Firebird database files." But the paragraph was changed to its current wording by an anonymous ! poster - presumable a Firebird proponent. If the poster disagrees with the remark, I think a better recourse would be to provide evidence to the contrary. The specific test case sited is small, but small is a virtue when trying to make a point. As it happens, I have heard this same 10x figure for database size difference from other independent sources. I ! have never tried it myself, and am somewhat perplexed to explain how it ! could be so. But the reports are consistent. If anyone has any other data suggesting that Firebird databases sizes are closer to being ! competitive with SQLite, then by all means present your findings.
