It's not a "flaw" in the Mac, but caused by two basic issues: 1. there are a lot fewer developers devoting their time to the Mozilla/Firebird versions for Mac. 2. Firebird originated as a Windows-only program specifically tailored to the Windows OS (one of the justifications for creating it was that the Mozilla widgets were too slow and non-standard), so Firebird for *any* platform other than Windows has been slower to develop than it was on Windows. -- David W.
