We were running Interbase 6 with and ISAPI DLL written in Delphi 5
using Interbase Express. The database is about 250mb. Win 2000 server
with 256mb. I did it in hopes of getting better performance. I have my
dll log any query which takes more than 1/2 second to open.
The new install was flawless. Backed up my existing database.
Removed interbase. Installed Firebird. Restored my database. No
changes to my existing dll. Everything worked perfectly.
With IB 6, my log of queries over 1/2 second had about 100 entries a
day. With Firebird, I get almost none. FB seems to run at least twice
as fast. Some queries are running 4 to 5 times faster with FB 1.5.
FB also seems better at memory management.
