Thanks for the comments. I'm a fan.

Yeah, I think "PRAGMA optimize" here on startup is basically a no-op and only costs microseconds but I should just remove it.

Seems like the ideal thing is to spawn a goroutine and run optimize periodically. Many Go daemons I run will have uptime measured in months so running on shutdown isn't super useful there.

Another one I might add is running `PRAGMA wal_checkpoint(PASSIVE)` periodically from a goroutine, which is something I've done in some of my daemons. Because otherwise a random write suffers from increased latency due to having to checkpoint.

Probably makes sense to open a dedicated read/write connection just for running `PRAGMA wal_checkpoint(PASSIVE)` at some regular interval to keep ahead of any autocheckpointing?
