You'll actually get better support from sqlite than from other databases. The question is one of balance: are you more concerned with easily getting your dicts and tuples back intact, or with executing queries on the *contents* of those dicts and tuples? Sqlite will treat pickles as opaque objects, and will be unable to do anything with their contents.
