interpreted as a boolean, which enables or disables the collection of
 | 
						|
memory allocation statistics. When memory allocation statistics are

						|
disabled, the following SQLite interfaces become non-operational:

 <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE</dt>
 |

<dd> The SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE option specifies a memory pool
 | 
						|
that SQLite can use for the database page cache with the default page
 | 
						|
cache implementation.
 | 
						|
This configuration option is a no-op if an application-defined page
 | 
						|
cache implementation is loaded using the <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigpcache2">SQLITE_CONFIG_PCACHE2</a>.
 | 
						|
There are three arguments to SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE: A pointer to
 | 
						|
8-byte aligned memory (pMem), the size of each page cache line (sz),
 | 
						|
and the number of cache lines (N).
 | 
						|
The sz argument should be the size of the largest database page
 | 
						|
(a power of two between 512 and 65536) plus some extra bytes for each
 | 
						|
page header.  The number of extra bytes needed by the page header
 | 
						|
can be determined using <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigpcachehdrsz">SQLITE_CONFIG_PCACHE_HDRSZ</a>.
 | 
						|
It is harmless, apart from the wasted memory,
 | 
						|
for the sz parameter to be larger than necessary.  The pMem
 | 
						|
argument must be either a NULL pointer or a pointer to an 8-byte
 | 
						|
aligned block of memory of at least sz*N bytes, otherwise
 | 
						|
subsequent behavior is undefined.
 | 
						|
When pMem is not NULL, SQLite will strive to use the memory provided
 | 
						|
to satisfy page cache needs, falling back to <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc()</a> if
 | 
						|
a page cache line is larger than sz bytes or if all of the pMem buffer
 | 
						|
is exhausted.
 | 
						|
If pMem is NULL and N is non-zero, then each database connection
 | 
						|
does an initial bulk allocation for page cache memory
 | 
						|
from <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc()</a> sufficient for N cache lines if N is positive or
 | 
						|
of -1024*N bytes if N is negative, . If additional
 | 
						|
page cache memory is needed beyond what is provided by the initial
 | 
						|
allocation, then SQLite goes to <a href="../c3ref/free.html">sqlite3_malloc()</a> separately for each
 | 
						|
additional cache line. </dd></p>

 | 
						|
<p><a name="sqliteconfigheap"></a>

						|
 <dt>SQLITE_CONFIG_HEAP</dt>
 | 
						|
<dd> The SQLITE_CONFIG_HEAP option specifies a static memory buffer
 | 
						|
that SQLite will use for all of its dynamic memory allocation needs
 | 
						|
beyond those provided for by <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigpagecache">SQLITE_CONFIG_PAGECACHE</a>.
 | 
						|
The SQLITE_CONFIG_HEAP option is only available if SQLite is compiled
 | 
						|
with either <a href="../compile.html#enable_memsys3">SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMSYS3</a> or <a href="../compile.html#enable_memsys5">SQLITE_ENABLE_MEMSYS5</a> and returns
 | 
						|
<a href="../rescode.html#error">SQLITE_ERROR</a> if invoked otherwise.
 | 
						|
There are three arguments to SQLITE_CONFIG_HEAP:
 | 
						|
An 8-byte aligned pointer to the memory,
 | 
						|
the number of bytes in the memory buffer, and the minimum allocation size.
 | 
						|
If the first pointer (the memory pointer) is NULL, then SQLite reverts
 | 
						|
to using its default memory allocator (the system malloc() implementation),
 | 
						|
undoing any prior invocation of <a href="../c3ref/c_config_covering_index_scan.html#sqliteconfigmalloc">SQLITE_CONFIG_MALLOC</a>.  If the
 | 
						|
memory pointer is not NULL then the alternative memory
 | 
						|
allocator is engaged to handle all of SQLites memory allocation needs.
 | 
						|
The first pointer (the memory pointer) must be aligned to an 8-byte
 | 
						|
boundary or subsequent behavior of SQLite will be undefined.
 | 
						|
The minimum allocation size is capped at 2**12. Reasonable values
 | 
						|
for the minimum allocation size are 2**5 through 2**8.</dd></p>

The argument specifies alternative low-level mutex routines to be used

Usually, when SQLite uses an external sort to order records according

sorted records. However, if SQLite determines based on the declared type

of a table column that its values are likely to be very large - larger

than the configured sorter-reference size threshold - then a reference
 |

is stored in each sorted record and the required column values loaded

from the database as records are returned in sorted order. The default

value for this option is to never use this optimization. Specifying a
