In my heavy loaded server application I sometimes see exceptions of
---------
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.FbException: deadlock
update conflicts with concurrent update
---------

When using a blank database it doesn't have the problem. But after
running for a couple of days when the database size becomes bigger
(around 1GB), the exception happens more and more...

I am using firebird 1.5.4, .net provider 2.0.1. The connection pool
size is 1000, basically caches all db connections. Sometimes there may
be 100 threads spawned trying to insert/update records.

What can I do to avoid update conflicts as much as possible? shall I
limit the thread number or connection pool size?

Thanks a lot!
