642572841,MDU6SXNzdWU2NDI1NzI4NDE=,859,Database page loads too slowly with many large tables (due to table counts),3243482,open,0,,,21,2020-06-21T14:23:17Z,2021-08-25T21:59:55Z,,CONTRIBUTOR,,"Hey,
I have a database that I save in HTML from couple of web scrapers. There are around 200k+, 50+ rows in a couple of tables, with sqlite file weighing around 600MB.

The app runs on a VPS with 2 core CPU, 4GB RAM and refreshing database page regularly takes more than 10 seconds. I was suspecting that counting tables was the culprit, but manually running `select count(*) from table_name` for the largest table finishes under a second.

I've looked at the source code. There's a check for index page for mutable databases larger than 100MB
https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/799c5d53570d773203527f19530cf772dc2eeb24/datasette/views/index.py#L15

but this check is not performed for database page. 
I've manually crippled `Database::table_counts` method
```py
async def table_counts(self, limit=10):
    if not self.is_mutable and self.cached_table_counts is not None:
        return self.cached_table_counts
    # Try to get counts for each table, $limit timeout for each count
    counts = {}
    for table in await self.table_names():
        try:
            # table_count = (
            #     await self.execute(
            #         ""select count(*) from [{}]"".format(table),
            #         custom_time_limit=limit,
            #     )
            # ).rows[0][0]
            counts[table] = 10 # table_count
        # In some cases I saw ""SQL Logic Error"" here in addition to
        # QueryInterrupted - so we catch that too:
        except (QueryInterrupted, sqlite3.OperationalError, sqlite3.DatabaseError):
            counts[table] = None
    if not self.is_mutable:
        self.cached_table_counts = counts
    return counts
```

now the page loads in <100ms.

Is it possible to apply size check on database page too?

This can be fixed using flexbox.

```css
body {
  min-height: 100vh;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.content {
