Hi Mimmo,

sorry, it's ibase_pconnect(). I use adodb and not ibase_...() functions
directly. And there I use PConnect().

I think, it's not a PHP problem but a problem of my configuration of my
Firebird server.

I really like Firebird, but to find solutions to such problems here is
rather difficult for me. It's more "fishing in the dark" right now.

All I know, that in general my application / database runs fine, but at
some points, repsonse times to request are just too long. And here I'm
stuck, I don't have a good plan to identify the real problem and to
solve it.
