IMHO that's not the whole story with Firebird 1.0.3 under
Windows 2003. There seems to be other connect/disconnect
issues with Firebird 1.0 that were fixed in Firebird 1.5.

Some people have reported that setting CPU Optimization
to application instead of services might help, but a
disconnect was still awfully slow, at least some months
ago, when I did some tests with Firebird 1.0.x on
Windows 2003. Firebird 1.5 is working fine.
