Subject Gbak Restore - SuperServer vs. SuperClassic
Author

Hi


Does GBak behave different on a Classic Server than on a SuperServer regarding restore speed?


I ask this, because around 1 year ago I installed Firebird 2.5 SS on a Windows environment. 

Here I did a restore of a 90 Gb DB.

This took around 8 hours. 


Since then we have switched from SS to Classic due to some performance issues.


The setup runs good.


Now I have 2 times tried to restore the dayly dump file on another folder on this very same system.

Both times I have had to cancel this after 9+ hours where the restore was approximatly half way.


I would have expected it to be a little more than 9 hours, since the DB is now 96 GB.
