SQLite3 is great for read-only stuff. It’s ultra fast for single-table SELECTs.

AAAHHHH.. This is so old but thanks for the heads up! Will stay clear of sqlite.

Increasing the lock timeout seems like a terrible solution that should absolutely not be used in production. You’re asking for deadlock.

Just increase the lock timeout. See the patch at http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/9409 for docs.

That’s why unless you’re doing anything but read-heavy operations all the time, you use InnoDB with MySQL ;)
