Subject FB1 Memory usage
Author sean_brad <sean_brad@yahoo.com>
Hi,

Does Firebird have a problem with memory usage?

Although the IBServer process doesn't appear to be using a lot of
memory, the server as a whole has very little physical memory
available and the swap file in use is very large.

It seems a bit strange to have such a large amount of cache being
used when there seems to be plenty of physical memory available. And
I asumme this is having an affect on the performance

FB1 is the only non-OS application running on the NT4 server. FB is
used 24 a day.

Are there any actions I can take or setting to be made to alter this
characteristic.

Thanks,

Sean
