I don't know whether your usage is bad or not. What kind of indexes do you have and how do you update? What about transactions, do you have a noticeable gap between oldest (active) transaction and next transaction? I don't know whether it is still relevant (it is a very old article), but in some cases I think rdb$db_key can be useful for updates: http://ibexpert.net/ibe/index.php?n=Doc.TheMysteryOfRDBDBKEY
