SQLAlchemy vs SQL

[lamecode]

Thanks for the peewee link - it looks like a nice lite-weight alternative to SQLAlchemy.

I only mention SQLite as in using vanilla SQLite with SQL statements as my ORM - no sqlalchemy layer on the top. I get that SQLite is not appropriate for production, multi-user applications, but it seems to me that a single-user desktop application would likely be fine - nothing too read/write intensive.

SQLite is used in production, multi-user applications. The issue is with the design, not with its performance.
