mmap and blobs
Login
Hello,

I've read https://www.sqlite.org/intern-v-extern-blob.html

when storing blobs in external files they can be mmapped and their address passed around.

When using internal blobs it seems at least one allocation and a copy is made when reading the blob, even if sqlite is used in mmap mode.

Am I right in concluding that directly mapping internal blobs to memory is not possible?

thank you
