Pros
I think SQLite may be a good replacement for gadfly, because:
- the main engine is written in C, so it should be faster than the gadfly implementation in Python
- it's extensible in a very easy way via Python
- it dosn't put all data in memory like gadflay does
- It's very cool for small databased application, because you do not have to start an external DBMS
- Implements almost all of SQL92
Cons
- Untyped! (this is also a feature)
