Agreed. I've been seeing a lot of these posts lately, about embedding SQLite into web servers.
I think a lot of people just don't realize how few resources Postgres or MySQL use, and how fast they are. You can run Apache and MySQL and a scripting language on a tiny little 512 MB memory instance, and serve some decent traffic. It works great.
Wanting to use SQLite and deal with replication is a nightmare. I don't get it. (And I love using SQLite in apps and scripts. But not websites!)
