Subject DefaultDBCache VS Page Buffers
Author Niben M Singh
Hi -

I have a question regarding firebird cache settings. In the conf file there is an entry called DefaultDBCache which allows to set the cache size for firebird database. I also see that this setting can also be set per database by the setting page buffer using gfix command, like

gfix -b[uffers] BUFFERS database_name

Are they same? Is the DefaultDBCache setting is on a server level and page buffer setting is on a database level??

I am running FB 2.1 Superserver and am wondering how these settings will effect me.

Will appreciate any response.

Thanks,
Niben
