OS was always cacheing FB/IB files. but the cache systems in FB and OS are different. You may try to disable OS file cache turning FileSystemCacheSize = 0 but be sure that DB page size is the same as FS cluster size, or you will see bad performance (anyway, you will see lower performance turning FS cache off). -- Dmitry Kuzmenko, www.ibase.ru, (495) 953-13-34 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ EditLive Enterprise is the world's most technically advanced content authoring tool.
