OK, i confirm the parametized queries it's MUCH MUCH more fast than normal
query (up to 3x more fast!)

Was a little "hard" to understand the api to know how to use well the
parametized queries ...
i do component for that to make it more simple to use (delphi) and call
the query like
update(SQL, array of params);

now when i read this article

http://codicesoftware.blogspot.com/2008/04/fastest-way-to-insert-100k-registers.html

i thing a possibility to call update like in MySql

INSERT INTO testtable (iobjid, ifield0, ifield1) VALUES ({0}, {1}, {2}),
0, 300000, 50000, ({0}, {1}, {2}), 0, 300000, 50000 ...

can not be so bad as the problem of the parametized query is that they
need special components and it's could be good to run parametized query
from inside SQL text .....
