> And if you care about data integrity, you shouldn't be using these [ext4 or XFS] FUD. i've been using ext4 since it came out (and ext2 and ext3 before that), on dozens of computers, and have literally never once had any corruption with it. With XFS i had one instance of filesystem corruption way back in the early 2000's. i've read of _many_ more cases of data loss with ZFS and Btrfs on Linux than i have read about due to ext4 corruption.

How do you know you never had corruption?

If you truly believe this, there’s no reason you would want to add checksumming to SQLite either. Either the data you write can be corrupted or it can’t.
