[QUOTE="MJGraf, post: 1036202, member: 17886"] ok, one of my iprovement ideas was the following: Currently, when we read data from the database, we use the generic IDataReader's GetValue(int colIndex) method and we cast the resulting object to the type we expect. system.data.sqlite's SQLiteDataReader, however, has native methods for different data types, such as GetBytes, GetGuid, GetString, etc., which directly return the desired type. What I tried now is to use these native methods at least for byte[] values (in particular images, because they are huge in size) and Guid values (because we use them very often). The other values were for simplification purposes still read with GetValue.
