|

<p>Most of the existing triple stores and graph databases are very heavyweight services that would be impractical for packaging in a portable daemon in the same way that sqlite works. Maybe we can learn from how sqlite works and do something similar for graph databases?</p>

<blockquote>
|

<div><p>The overflow thresholds are designed to give a minimum fanout of 4 for index b-trees and to make sure enough of the payload is on the b-tree page that the record header can usually be accessed without consulting an overflow page. In hindsight, the designer of the SQLite b-tree logic realized that these thresholds could have been made much simpler. However, the computations cannot be changed without resulting in an incompatible file format. And the current computations work well, even if they are a little complex.</p>
