<p>there are other file formats, geopackage is not the only one out
there - spatialite also uses SQLite.<br>

<div dir="ltr">I do appreciate the good advice to use DBMS, I am
doing that too and understand the advantages. I would never
consider using a geopackage if I thought that multiple people
would want to edit them at the same time. But that is not
the case and that is not my problem. Sometimes, I just want to
keep geodata in a file on a network share and run the risk (in
my case insignificant) that the file will be corrupted by multi
user access. This I can do with shapefiles, but unlike the
shapefiles, I have to set the read-only flag on the
geopackages stored on the network to get decent rendering speed,
without ever wanting to edit the files. I think wanting to use
file based storage for geodata in a networked environment is not
unreasonable, even if there is some danger of corruption. All
file based formats are probably subject to that risk, but I
repeat, that issue is not what I am talking about, just the
rendering speed of data in a geopackage that is not set to
read-only.
<div>I suspect that there is no solution and that I will just
have to live with this - as I have done for years. It is just
a bit annoying. And I am surprised how little it is discussed.<br
