Hi Dmitry

First thanks for the fantastic work you do on Firebird.

FYI
I updated from FB3.0.0 (release version) to the 8-Sep-2016 snapshot and my exception count dropped from 100's of seemingly random exceptions a day to zero :)

Most returned a generic "Error Writing Data to the Connection" (even for select queries) but the stack trace suggested problems with blob data in other cases and I see a fix that mentioned blob data in about July.

Best regards
Tony

Hi,
 
as Dmitry say problems can be already solved in snapshot build
e.g. http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5307 can be same as your problems –
use napshot build from

It's worth trying a v3.0.1 snapshot before considering downgrade. It may
have these issue fixed already.
