Exactly....and having fbguard running with fb_inet_server can cause the "ghost connections" that Anderson described.

Regarding your original question, I see good signs that you have not gotten around to studying the documentation about Classic. Why don't you start with that? Particularly read the Fb 1.5 release notes on the subject, plus the Installation Notes in both the Quick Start Guide and the release notes.

I also note that you don't bother to read the detailed replies that some people have taken the time and trouble to provide for you, e.g., Adam and Sean. Really, you are wasting your time and our time by choosing to take this attitude.

And 20480 really is a ridiculous setting for the page cache in Superserver and IMPOSSIBLE for Classic. The "more is better" rule does NOT apply to page cache. For Classic, the default page cache size is 75 pages, assuming a page size of 2048 or 4096 bytes. That's why you were asked whether 20480 was a typo. On your high-spec'd machine, with a 4K page size you might reasonably start with a page cache of 128 to 512 pages if RAM is not being used excessively by other applications.
