When I create an empty db file, it is about 600k which is too large for my purposes. After playing with the creation sql I have got it down to about 240k. Is it possible to create a smaller db than that?

Bak-it up, and zip it, even if you use a bigger page size (the option
that gave you an empty 600k database) will be very very small when zipped.
