Depends what you mean by "suffer".  Performance always decreases as size
gets larger unless you take specific steps (such as better algorithms or
bigger hardware).  Using indexes should give SQLite reasonable
performance; you can always upgrade to a faster SQL implementation or
switch to another kind of storage.  But honestly, until you get to
millions of records, you should be fine with SQLite.
