Show HN: Sqinn-Go is a Golang library for accessing SQLite databases in pure Go

No, but that has the disadvantage of being C compiled into Go, then being compiled into native executable.

I'm actually surprised by how readable this came out; props to the Go->C compiler author. But you can guess that pushing this sort of thing through the Go compiler is going to cause some slowdowns due to sheer paradigm mismatch: https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite/-/blob/master/lib/sqlite_lin...

I don't think I understand what the argument for that is, because I've only ever heard it articulated as "cgo isn't go" which doesn't really convey much information.

Is this go? https://gitlab.com/cznic/libc/-/blob/master/libc_openbsd.go?...

I mean technically I suppose it is code that conforms to the go language grammar, but I'm not sure why a language purist would accept this.

It works pretty well! It's a thing you might keep in your back pocket to test builds from your ARM dev machine on a dev host, and then let the CI/CD system build the real version later.

  Benchmarks for Golang SQLite Drivers

Sqinn author here. Nothing against CGO, but I develop/deploy on Win/Linux, and cross-compiling CGO is very painful. Regarding performance: To my own surprise, Sqinn out-performs mattn (and others) for normal workloads, see https://github.com/cvilsmeier/sqinn-go-bench

  SQLite driver for the Go programming language

I think it's a somewhat unfair (though who cares if it's unfair) comparison because you aren't using the database/SQL interface and mattn does.

If you drop that interface, you get much better performance.

See: https://github.com/eatonphil/gosqlite for example.

  wazero: the zero dependency WebAssembly runtime for Go developers

  

It is slower.

The WASM runtime wazero [1] uses a compiler on amd64 and arm64 (on Linux, macOS, Windows, and FreeBSD), but the current compiler is very fast (at compiling), but very naive (generates less than optimal code).

An optimizing compiler is currently being developed, and should be released in the coming months. I'm optimistic that this compiler will cover the performance gap between WASM and modernc.
