 Jonathan,

I don't know how he could seriously answer your question. Valentina 2 is
usually several multiples faster than other C/C++ based databases, so it's
like comparing a footrace with five different star ships, "system based" and
faster-than-light versions.

If speed is a concern at all, anything that is not compiled to machine code
isnt going to work for you. If all you are going to do is store a thousand
records locally and you don't need lightning speed, just about anything will
work for you. It just wont grow very fast.
