Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Show HN: My Go SQLite driver did poorly on a benchmark, so I fixed it
First part of the README that hasn't changed in 2 months:
> Sqinn-Go is a Go (Golang) library for accessing SQLite databases without cgo. It uses Sqinn https://github.com/cvilsmeier/sqinn under the hood. It starts Sqinn as a child process (os/exec) and communicates with Sqinn over stdin/stdout/stderr. The Sqinn child process then does the SQLite work.
> If you want SQLite but do not want cgo, Sqinn-Go can be a solution.
This seems pretty clear to me about what's happening. It makes an OS call to a third-party executable (sqinn), pipes the result from stdout back into the Go code. The advantage is you don't have to compile the C code alongside your Go code.
Honestly, I don't really know how much more clear the author could be. I guess if you don't know what stdin, stdout, and stderr are it might be confusing? It's hard to imagine that a programmer who is interested in this library isn't familiar with those concepts though.

SQLite in Go, with and Without Cgo
I've not used it, but sqinn is one sqlite server meant specifically to be used by languages without c calling conventions:

Redis Re-Implemented with SQLite
> You can get substantially better performance out of sqlite by using the lower level https://github.com/crawshaw/sqlite, turning on WAL etc, using a connection per goroutine for reads, and sending batches of writes over a buffered channel / queue to a dedicated writer thread. That way you can turn off SQLite’s built in per-connection mutex but still be thread safe since each connection is only used on a single thread at a time.
Would this protect against a row update in the middle of a read? e.g. would a row at least be internally consistent at the time it was read?

SQLite in Go, with and Without Cgo
The default go sqlite driver is https://github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3, which is quite lovely, but I ran into issues with concurrency on read only databases.
I'm now using https://github.com/crawshaw/sqlite and it seems to address those issues (but I haven't gotten around to setting up a proper test to confirm). It may be worth perusing if you do run into performance problems. It does come with the caveat of not being a database/sql driver though.

Awesome SQLite
crawshaw/sqlite - Low-level Go interface to SQLite

A pure Go embedded SQL database
crawshaw/sqlite actually uses CGo -- it's a wrapper around the C version of SQLite. For example, see https://github.com/crawshaw/sqlite/blob/23d646f8ac00d9dd2390...
zombiezen/go-sqlite uses cznic's pure Go converted version of SQLite, so avoids CGo. It's explicitly stated to be "a fork of crawshaw.io/sqlite that uses modernc.org/sqlite, a CGo-free SQLite package. It aims to be a mostly drop-in replacement for crawshaw.io/sqlite."
