Subject Re: [firebird-support] Converting to firebird 3

Hi,

Firebird 3 is not a silver bullet, it mostly increases performance in the multiprocessing area.
With 30 connections, I would say that multiprocessing is not a problem, most likely you are having problems with SQL queries.

I would suggest to take a look on

Hi

 

We have an application with roughly 20 000 lines of code and have been using firebird 2.5 since the start. We do experience performance problems with 30+ client connections and are thinking of moving to firebird 3.

 

Is firebird 3 drastically going to improve performance and how immense would the conversion to firebird 3 be?

 

Thanks

Gian
