I have a large bunch of ids, and I'm wondering which is the best way to query them in terms of performance, and simplicity if possible. The naive approach would be something like `select * from table where rowid in (?, ?, ?...)` but that wouldn't scale if ids are >1k. Another approach might be creating a temp table, or in-memory db table, insert all ids in that table and then join with the target one. I failed to attach an in-memory db both using sqlite-utils, and plain sql's execute(), so my closest approach is something like, ```python def filter_existing_video_ids(video_ids): db = get_db() # contains a ""videos"" table db.execute(""CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE IF NOT EXISTS tmp (video_id TEXT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY)"") db[""tmp""].insert_all([{""video_id"": video_id} for video_id in video_ids]) for row in db[""tmp""].rows_where(""video_id not in (select video_id from videos)""): yield row[""video_id""] db[""tmp""].drop() ``` That kinda worked, I couldn't find an option in sqlite-utils's `create_table()` to tell it's a temporary table. Also, `tmp` table is not dropped finally, neither using `.drop()` despite being created with the keyword `TEMPORARY`. I believe it should be automatically dropped after connection/session ends though I read.",140912432,issue,,,"{""url"": ""https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/sqlite-utils/issues/555/reactions"", ""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,
