It would also be interesting to see a LevelDB vs SQLite comparison on Android, but there is some room to improve SQLite on ext4 (Journaling the Journal):

SQLite 4 is supposed to have a simplified K/V storage engine. That would probably be a more fair comparison.

(Hm, looking at LevelDB I don't see references to Android any more, maybe they dropped support?)

SQLite 4 is also designed, in part, to beat LevelDB (i.e. they explicitly benchmark the default storage engine against LevelDB)[1].

SQLite 4 looks pretty darn cool, is it still actively being worked on? Commits seem quite scarce[2].

Checkout https://github.com/maxpert/lsm-windows for port of the core LSM engine of SQLite4. I might be doing one in one more weekend.

I already did a port of SQLite4's LSM engine on Universal Windows (https://github.com/maxpert/lsm-windows) would have to do some more work before I can do a benchmark. Would love if someone can contribute :)
