Subject Re: [IB-Java] Using Blobs in Type 4 driver

Hi...

The driver is faster now. Slowness was probably due to the debugging
information that
was generated under the debugging IDE. :)

But I'm still having problem closing the connection (I did another post
previously, but no answers).
Basically, if I do many inserts (say, 100), closing the connection takes
very long (80-100 seconds).
It gets much much longer if I do more inserts.

I did a trace through the code, and found that the code "paused" during the
following stack trace.

FBManagedConnection.notify
FBStandAloneConnectionmanager.connectionClosed
FBManagedConnection.destroy
FBManagedConnectionFactory.releaseDbHandle
GDS_Impl.isc_detach_database
GDS_Impl.receiveResponse
GDS_Impl.readOperation
GDS_Impl.nextOperation (long pause here during db.in.readInt() )


My code is as follows. Pretty much standard code to delete items from a
table,
and perform simple inserts.

import java.sql.*;
import org.firebirdsql.jdbc.*;

public class TestFB {

public TestFB() {
}

public static void main (String args[]) {

try {
Class.forName("org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBDriver");
Connection con =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:firebirdsql:localhost:x:/db/ncsdb.gdb",
"SYSDBA", "masterkey");
con.setAutoCommit(true);
Statement statement = con.createStatement();
statement.executeUpdate("DELETE FROM MESSAGES WHERE ID>=1000
AND FOLDER_ID=999;");

PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO
MESSAGES (ID,FOLDER_ID) VALUES(?,?);");
con.setAutoCommit(true);

long l1 = System.currentTimeMillis();
for (int v = 0; v<1000; v++) {
ps.clearParameters();
ps.setLong(1, 1000+v);
ps.setLong(2, 999);
ps.executeUpdate();
}

System.out.println("FINISHED INSERT...");

ps.close();

long l2 = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println(l2-l1);

System.out.println("CLOSING CONNECTION...");

con.close();

long l3 = System.currentTimeMillis();
System.out.println(l3-l2);

System.out.println("DONE!");
}
catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}

}


Anybody else experiencing such problems?
I'm running the latest Firebird RC2 under Win2k,
and running JDK 1.3.1_02.

Thanks!

Regards
Kenneth
