Hi

This is getting interesting :-)

I tried with forced writes=true, and still get the same results.
I did 2000 item inserts, and after that processor usage lingers at 100% for
about 25 seconds.
This on a Athlon 900MHz system with 384MB RAM.

Insertion too, was a bit slow. (somewhere about 50 items per second).

Btw, not sure if this info is useful, but my code code creates a prepared
statement
everytime i perform the insertion. (This limitation is unfortunately, due to
the fact the
Type4 FB JDBC driver doesn't support reusing a statement after commits)
Just wondering if this has something to do with some internal memory
management?
But then again, it's just 2000 prepared statements. It can't possibly take
25 seconds to
free them all right?


Regards
Kenneth
