You have to sort out where your current bottleneck is.

Can you pin-point it to a particular query or is performance in general bad?
With Firebird 2.5, you have quite some monitoring amory, e.g.
monitoring tables (tables starting with MON$...) or the Trace API.

Try to get a big picture with that tooling to see what's going, statement
execution plans etc..., I/O statistics, e.g. is data being fetched from disk
or served from the Firebird cache, which I doubt with your page buffers
value below.

With SuperServer and a page size of 4096 and a page buffers set of 0, which
gets overriden with a default value of 2048 from firebird.conf (if not
specified otherwise), you end up with a Firebird page cache of 8MB
(!) only for your database.

Increase "Page buffers" to e.g. 10000 (e.g. with gfix command-line tool),
then re-connect your client application and see if this helps.

There is other tuning stuff, but as a first step increasing the Firebird
page cache + getting a big picture on your slow statements, their execution
plan probably pointing to missing indexes ... is a good start.

Good luck.
