During this blocking period, Firebird CPU usage is unusually low as this is a busy server. This server normally has 200-300 client attachments. The blocking time has varied from 2 minutes to over 10 minutes. During this time, no Firebird operations can be performed i.e. New connections are blocked along with existing connections. Upon recovery, Firebird continues processing without any other issues.
