Gustav...

Is'nt that a bad idea?
The size of a database get bigger (but not only reason) due to
compilations.
Code get compiled when it gets used, but also queries.
So if you would make the file readonly you coder and queries never get
compiled and your app is slower.

Hi Pedro

If your frontend is not supposed to write data to itself, you may write
protect the file when you have finished design changes and compacting.
