Description

Hi,
I'm getting high process counts (~105 tasks between restarts) which are reported suspended in htop.

I have a debian linux system with 1 cpu.

I have switched to pure go sqlite and they are down to 12 tasks.

Research direction

Reproduce the report on Debian Linux with one CPU, observing suspended tasks in htop across restarts and comparing the driver with pure Go SQLite. Trace the process or connection behavior responsible and confirm that the task count is reduced without changing the reported database behavior.
