How large is the database? Because there is a way to fully load SQLite into memory, which would speed everything up drastically for a scan. At the end of the scan, you could just write back everything to the disk, then it is just one blob of sequential write, which is fast enough on spinning rust.
Struggled with this since ages. Recently I just made a service public. Now I get pressure by being scared of negative feedback. Unhealthy, but it works.

As far as I understand it, this is probably not a pay raise. The news says that it would be the first raise since 2016. If you look at the inflation of USA, you can see that $100 in 2016 are $138 today. So if you raise it by 18%, you have not even covered the inflation.
