"res_disk_retriever = sqlite" very slow game start

[_Enio_]

I recently changed res_disk_retriever var to "sqlite" to check if its faster than the sdb format (and as surak hinted that its more advanced than sdb, see quote) and noticed a very slow loading before arriving at my characters screen.

Process explorer reported very high read access by the game while loading, is there maybe some integrity check on the ressource.db activated during game startup?

The delay on loading is approximated 3 times longer than copying the whole file.

Disabled it for now again but im curious about this delay and if someone can confirm this and of course - if it can be turned off.


Regards

Edit: Running on Windows 7

My suggestion: change res_disk_retriever = sdb to res_disk_retriever = sqlite in game.cfg and be happy.
