Ok, but something is not right, in some instances I am getting about 1 or 2 megabytes throughput with gbak fb3, and I am getting 150 MB throughput with gbak fb 2.5; the problem is so evident it cannot be just different access. It seems there is a bottle neck somewhere; perhaps the small changes I've made to the firebird.conf are affecting it substancially??? Simple changes like tcpip packet size to 16384 instead of 8192, more memory assigned to some resources, nothing creazy, like multiply by 4 changes...

Gbak and nbackup are different tools that work in a different way. Gbak
works through a Firebird server (real or embedded), while nbackup works
with the physical backup file.
