Hello, InterBase XE3 got something which allows to create indexes during restore in parallel. http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/InterBase_XE3
I'm currently running a restore of a Firebird 2.5.2 TPC-H scale 1 database (both, backup and restore are on a consumer SDD) and in that case the index creation process is mainly CPU bound, basically fully utilizing 1 core of my hexa-core desktop. Is this something where Firebird could benefit as well? If yes, would this be possible across all architectures or does this need a shared page cache etc. Another improvement for the index creation process during a restore might be to allow a temporary bigger page cache, so perhaps a -cache, -buffers or whatever option might be helpful. Pretty much what e.g isql already allows at connection level etc. Thoughts?
