It does this because your script creates and destroys the database
connection every time it reads an object.  If you keep this connection
open, then it won't do that.  Whenever you open a database, the whole file
is read in order to rebuild the index cache, when you .close() the
connection, the whole thing goes out of scope and is destroyed.
