This is an awesome analysis. You said that this has no place in production code, but I humbly disagree.

I (was) using System.Data.SQLite, and found that running INSERT statements in System.Data.SQLite is incredibly slow relative to compiling the C code (System.Data.SQLite got ~300-500 inserts per second, compared to the C code which got ~40000-500000 inserts per second).

Nothing compares to raw unmanaged code :)
