Subject Re: [firebird-support] Embedded Server question

Hi Alan,

No... but that is only anecdotal evidence... haven't done any serious
performance testing yet. Do you mean in query performance or program
loading type issues? We certainly don't notice it in program loading...
having said that, I've never been completely clear on how Windows loads
dlls, and whether everything is loaded all at once etc.

Our application has database access just about everywhere, but select
result sets are generally very small... at least for 99% of users, so
given the deployment flexibility, we'd probably just take a performance
hit if it exists, or try to rework some SQL.

Regards,

Peter Lee
