Setting up a plugin hook that lets you use alternative database backends is getting more and more tempting...

Like PHP PDO? https://www.php.net/manual/en/book.pdo.php

Or are you talking about something else?

This would be super useful for something I’m working on using datasette, querying across three tables with over 1.5m rows. Going to try the same queries on this tomorrow.

Exactly what I have been hoping to see as well. Analytical queries are a tad too slow for datasette, so I have had to materialize the more interesting roll-ups.
