I noted this slowness for some time, but never created a test case so it
can be measured.

I am sending a back-up to Dmitry Kuzmenko (as he asked for) so he could
take a look.

I really don't know what's happening, but it's strange to me.

I think that a profilling of gbak and fb server process during the
restore could show where the time is used and shed some light.

see you !
