Probably an indexing issue. First, make sure TRIM is really needed
(usually it isn't, padding is omitted in string comparison anyway, but
IIRC only right padding - someone correct me please if my memory is
playing tricks on me).
Second, create indices on vwTA.cNameCity01 and tSI.tDt.
Third, if possible, try to get rid of the CASTs (unless tSI.tDt is not a
date field, in which case try to pass your condition values in a form
matching the data in tSI.tDt instead of converting the column to DATE;
e.g. if it's a timestamp, maybe pass '2018-03-01 00:00:00' and
'2018-03-31 23:59:59' and throw the CAST away [pun intended ;)]).
If you really need to transform the data on the fly in WHERE conditions,
you make it virtually impossible for Firebird to use indices to your
advantage.
If nothing of the above helps, send your query execution plan (plus the
record counts of the tables involved and index defs).
