Subject Re: [firebird-support] Problem compiling Firebird 1.5.2 SuperServer for the Mac
Author David Savill
Hi,

Im having the same issue trying to compile SS.

I find that Classic is very slow on OSX (using a PowerBook G4). Was
hoping that SS might be a little zippier. If I run the same app on my
OSX machine and on a Linux Debian P4, the speed difference is quite
noticeable.
