@BrowserUK, what exactly do you mean by this?

<quote>Instead, share the db handle and create statement handles for your queries. </quote>

I'm using DBI and that doesn't seem to be very thread friendly. Also SQLite DBD doesn't mention threading anywhere in the documentation.

When I try to pass the db handle to my thread as a parameter, I get this:

$g_dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=:memory:");
threads->create(\&my_thread, $g_dbh);

Thread 1 terminated abnormally: DBD::SQLite::db prepare failed: handle
+ 2 is owned by thread 7f7f64003200 not current thread 7f7f6455fc00 (h
+andles can't be shared between threads and your driver may need a CLO
+NE method added)

If I try to share the db handle, I get:

our $g_dbh :shared;
$g_dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:SQLite:dbname=:memory:");

Invalid value for shared scalar
