I have a little console app that makes a connection, runs a simple
select query, then outputs the result.


About every fourth time, it takes 7-10 seconds to connect.


I am using TIB_Connection, TIB_Transaction, and TIB_Query on an XP box
(Pentium M) with a Firebird database.


Note: The same code runs GREAT on Kylix.


What could be causing this?


Thanks,


George Helmlke
