Finished backing up and restoring. Same issue with 2.5.2. You can hear the server writing to disk constantly when running the software.

As I mentioned, we have a number of installations (approx 60) of the same database and software and no complaints from other clients about performance.

We have never changed any of the configuration options in Firebird.

Really confused why this one server is having this issue.
