sqlite-d provides no safety whatsoever.
You will the database read in whatever state the operation system 
see the underlying file.

It is unlikely that it will crash.
But of course it may read stale or incomplete data.

There is a locking mechanism in SQLite-proper.
However SQLite-D currently makes no attempt in looking for the 
lock-page.

As a side note:
I would like to make clear that SQLite is very fast for what it 
does.
It is among the fastest of SQL-databases, and has a high quality 
of implementation.
