For the speed issues.*

Storing and querying the desktop events proved to be by an order of magnitude 
slower in nepomuk (**for the type of queries that we need**). For that reason, 
the sqlite backend was introduced. It freed us from pushing a huge amount of 
(for the rest of the world unneeded) data into the database and having to 
query it every time the score is updated.

This way, we are having a private database for private things, and pushing 
only the important data to nepomuk to be accessible by other applications.
(as IMO it should be in other clients as well - not to abuse a rdf store as a 
kitchen-sink database)

Cheerio,
Ivan

* back then, there were also quite a few thread-safety related issues in 
soprano that kept kamd crashing. But that was not even considered as a reason 
for the switch - it was just a nice side-effect to have kamd more stable.
