Developer ksenxx has open-sourced a deeply optimized version of SQLite 3.54.0 on GitHub.

The project improves performance through four main techniques: WAL-by-default, WAL write coalescing, computed-goto VDBE dispatch, and PGO (Profile-Guided Optimization) builds. It achieves a 1.59x geomean speedup on official and academic benchmarks while passing the full test suite.
