Time for a more robust DB Engine?

[RobbieE-ZA]

I've been running a Chia farm for a couple of years now, and the number of times I've experienced the "sqlite3.DatabaseError: database disk image is malformed" error is depressingly.

I live in an area where the power is not always so reliable and can be off for hours at a time, so, even stored power eventually runs out if I'm not at home to turn the generator on.

Replacing the database usually happens by two routes:

1. Downloading the latest image from the official site, or
2. Deleting the blockchain and resynchronising from scratch. I actually did this once and it took more than 5 months to get up to date, not because of my internet connection (it's a reliable 100Mbps line), but rather the super-throttling that peers apply.

I've never known any other database engine this fragile, and with the blockchain now almost 180GB, wouldn't it be prudent to move to a more robust engine?
