Hi Mark

thank you very much! your answer is very detailed !!!!

 

so :

 

>Based on your link below, you are confusing the specific problems of

>running on an active directory server with a problem with the windows
>>filesystem cache on 64 bit windows. An issue that has been addressed in
Firebird 2.5.2.

that problem is about Firebird , and with that newer versions from 2.5.x to 3 is solved?!

but the "solution" was made just by modifing the code of FB

or becouse it's needed a specific configuration?

 

>I have no idea what you mean with this sentence. I think you misread the

ok

yes that would be my case , my small customers could not make that effort to have 2 servers

we are speaking of lan of 3/5 customers.

 

anyway, using a different physical you know that the performance will be the "standard ones" ?

 

phisical disk cold be also a "partition" from the same HDD ?
