SQLite3 Last Row Inserted ID Equal 0

When working with SQLite3, I had an issue recently where sqlite3_last_insert_rowid(database) was returning 0. This normally means that there have been no inserts performance against the database. In my case, I had just done an insert that came back as OK.
It turns out that the problem was that I had too many databases open at one time. In the interest of data partitioning for performance, I had created 6 databases. I guess the libsqlite3.dylib will not allow that many different databases to be open at one time. Things seem OK when I have 3 open. I will try to figure out how many databases can be open at one time and report back. Or if I find it in the SQLite documentation I will come back and edit this post to report it.
