Derby is really quite nice. I've been using it for a couple of years
now with no issues. Very stable and the speed is very good.
Lots of people use it, either as Cloudscape (the IBM offering of the
same product) or Derby (http://wiki.apache.org/db-derby/UsesOfDerby).
It is certainly a bit more sophisticated and featured than SQLite,
and particularly good for embedding in your application if you are
writing in Java. I guess it depends on what you are wanting to use it
for.
Andrus, if HSQLDB is a pain, then Derby might be an option. Easy to
embed, although the jar is 2.2Mb which is a bit large. At some point
when Java 6 becomes the minimum requirement for Cayenne Modeler that
could go away.
Toni, if you want to have a go at throwing together an SQLite driver,
there are some instructions to get you started here:
