All I can guess is that you've got a huge (and uncontested)
page cache, so until you commit, nothing goes to disk, then
everything goes at once. If you're using a modern Firebird,
check the MON$ tables for I/O statistics before and after
commit. If you're seeing only reads, fetchs, and marks before
commit and tons of writes afterward, that may be a clue.


Good luck,
