SQLite is a tool for applications to access their persistent data using
relational database semantics, the data being saved in a prescribed 
file format designed for that purpose. It will let multiple users access
the file, but that's not really its strong suit. Rdb's design choices seem
geared around making the database a system resource that can
efficiently support multiple concurrent access.
