I have uploaded packages of Firebird from the R2_5_0
tag in SVN to Debian/experimental. No guarantees these will match the official release, but may be worth a try for those who want to live on the edge.
Short guide of installing packages from the experimental branch is available here.

This is because, in this specific situation, gbak works in embedded mode. Alex Peshkov says this provides the best performance results.

Hi,
I found this bench : http://tokutek.com/products/iibench/
(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mdcallag/mysql-patch/mytools/annotate/head%3A/bench/ibench/iibench.py)
and aibench.py:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mdcallag/mysql-patch/mytools/annotate/head%3A/bench/ibench/aibench.pyI made a Firebird version of both. You can download them here : http://www.firebirdsql.org/download/rabbits/pmakowski/
If you find them useful, I will put them in the svn QA repository

-SE[RVICE] <servicename>
This switch causes gbak to backup a remote database via the service manager. This causes the backup file to be created on the remote server, so the path format and filename must be valid on the remote server. The servicename is currently always the text service_mgr.
