Hi Dimitry,

Our FB installations are everywhere just default.
I just checked, when a database in IBExpert is created, the default setting for Sweep interval is set to 0.
Seems nobody payed attention.
So, all databases are created with IBExpert, so that means all customer databases are configured with Sweep interval 0 :-( :-( :-(

Thx
N.
