Oh, I forgot, and it may also be interesting. Firebird does not have
anything equivallent to MSSQL's BCP (bulk copy program) - which can be
used to dump and load data really fast (ignores transaction control and
constraints). The closest thing in FB are external tables, but it has
problems with NULL values and doesn't support BLOBs (this is the reason
I wrote FBExport tool, but it is much slower).
