About:
The SQLite Analyzer is a command-line utility that inspects and reports on the internal structure of SQLite database files. It details page allocation, b-tree structure, and overall database performance characteristics. This tool is essential for diagnosing storage inefficiencies and optimizing complex database schemas.
Key Features:

  • Analysis of freelist pages and unused space
  • Cross-platform compatibility via Homebrew
Use Cases:
