Subject Re: AW: [firebird-support] Problem Firebird Classic Server
Author Fabian Chocron
Hi Olaf,

In Classic each user/connection consumes (Page Size * Buffer size), so you
need to reduce it based on your max simultaneous connections and available
memory.
Let's say you have 70 users max, and 2 Gb Ram, then 2000Mb / 70 = 28 Mb
each, if pagesize is 4mb then you can have a cache of 7 pages (7 * 4 = 28).

There are other small considerations to take into account, but in principle
the above is correct.
Cheers,
Fabian
