Inline with our department’s ideologies to use open source systems, I am now using Lazarus as my front end and Firebird as my backend. It’s almost 2 year that i’ve been using firebird (started by ver 2.1.2) and i really find it a great database. I just started with Lazarus and so far, im already getting the hang of it!

There is a simple change which makes restores much faster, tested with Linux 2.5 embedded restore
Two databases, with two different tables filled with 2,000,000 records:
create table t1 (n1 integer);
create table t10 (n1 integer, n2 integer, n3 integer, …, n10 integer);
---------------------- Restore timings: T1: 14.5s T10: 20.5s Improved gbak timings: T1: 9.7s T10: 14.7s ----------------------
The good news is there is still room to improve the restore speeds , here is Adriano’s tweet:
I do have a slight different method, to insert 100K records in less than 1s over the same localhost method.
Also confirmed by the ending of the article:
PS: There is other restore improvement capable of take down time from
around 8.5s to 0.5s over TCP, but it still requires some analisys.
