Subject 2.5 RC3 (Win32) - Embedded: seems to allocate 4096 pages for each connection
Author Olivier Mascia
I must be setting something wrong somewhere (I hope so), but it does look like my tests with 2.5 RC3 (Win32) embedded do use 4096 cache pages per connection. I would have expected it to be 75 in the absence of any firebird.conf file or while DefaultDbCachePages is commented out.

Yet, despite my (small) efforts to set it to 100 to clearly see if it obeys my settings, either through firebird.conf or through DPB parameters at attachment-time, I seem to always get 4096 pages allocated. At least the committed memory of my process increase by a bit more than 65 MB per attachment (4096 * 16384) and 4096 is also the value which I get back through isc_database_info(isc_info_num_buffers).

Is this a known bug which I would have missed in the list?
