    <p>^When a new database is created, SQLite assigned a page size to
    the database based on platform and filesystem.  For many years,
    the default page size was almost always 1024 bytes, but beginning
    with SQLite [version 3.12.0] in 2016, the default page size increased
    to 4096.

    <p>^The page_size pragma will only cause an immediate change in the
    page size if it is issued while the database is still empty, prior 

    to the first CREATE TABLE statement.  ^(If the page_size pragma is
    used to specify a new page size just prior to
    running the [VACUUM] command and if the database is not in
    [WAL | WAL journal mode] then [VACUUM] will change the page
    size to the new value.)^</p>

    <p>^The [SQLITE_DEFAULT_PAGE_SIZE] compile-time option can be used
    to change the default page size assigned to new databases.
