Interesting information that they chose modernc.org/sqlite over mattn/go-sqlite3 as a Quality-of-Life improvement. Going forward I guess I'll do the same for new projects.

The NATS Jetstream use case is something I'm curious about.

Cheers and keep up the great work on Litestream.

All the public benchmarks (and my own applications) indicate that there is only a small (often unnoticeable) performance penalty associated with modernc.org/sqlite and this is far outweighed by the ability to eliminate CGO. I'd use it on future projects without hesitation.
