Are you using ibase_ connections direct?
I started with ADOdb, simply because all of the neat stuff I
needed was available of the shelf. That caches results at
the PHP level, so I am probably not seeing the problems you
describe. Changing between persistent and non-persistent
connections produces a noticeable change when several users
are in, and the PHP5 setup does seem to serve faster than 4,
but don't quote me on that, the PHP4 setup was never
properly bench marked.

There is a need for a Firebird version of the Interbase
module, but I have not reached the point were I must have it
yet ;)
