what is the performance like for a database server that's separated from your host like that? It's not separated. As this diagram shows - https://mtlynch.io/litestream/diagram.jpg https://mtlynch.io/litestream/diagram.jpg - the SQLite database is on the same server as the web application. Additionally, OP's setup seems to use Litestream to backup the SQLite database to some cloud storage.
