Is FB 3.x much faster than FB 2.5.x? I'm looking for some timing and stability comparisons.
Alexey Kovyazin answers:
We are running Firebird Performance tests everyday (using oltp-emulation test), for 2.5 SC and 3.0 SS respectively:
http://ib-aid.com/en/logs-2-5/
http://ib-aid.com/en/logs-3-0/
These tests are running to catch fluctuations from one build to another, but they also show that 3.0 SS is 20-25% better than 2.5 SC.
Keep in mind that test is designed to simulate parallel write load.
