Not really -- you were testing whether or not a SQLite based backing 
store is appropriate for storing large BLOBs of data;  it is not.

Which does nothing to answer the question as to whether or not a 
SQLite based backing store is appropriate for storing large quantities 
of small data values (typical non-binary fields of data);  which it 
very much is....
