You want to configure it so it has a timeout. Take turns. That’s how locks work.

The only difference between SQLite and Postgres write locking is the granularity.

It's not a trivial difference like you suggest.

[liontwist]

I agree It’s not a trivial difference in implementation and the concurrent write performance is probably a lot worse.

But it’s talked about as if it’s a categorical limitation, the app will fail if there is concurrency. But it’s just a question of how much time will be spent locking.

A website with a 16 process pool for handling requests will be fine.

sqlite also polls for lock availability
