I'm planning to use HSQL, since it's in Debian stable and the API resembles what I'm already familiar with. Database access is slower than file access (which is one reason I want to move as much logic as I can out of SQL), so if the speed of getting rows out of the database turns out to be the bottleneck in my code, I'll either be happy that all the other code is so efficient or peeved that HSQL is so inefficient.
Hi Seth, HSQL is just a thin wrapper around the underlying database engine. The performance in this case depends mainly on the database engine that you are using. Cheers, Krasimir
