Thanks for your reply. My database is on RAM, as I know it is the most fastest I/O for Firebird. I was watching cpu's utilization via window's task manager, almost constantly at 16%. If there was a bottleneck in I/O, whenever I/O processing finished, I should saw some raising in cpu's utilization. I though this was no bottleneck, it just seems that FB Server couldn't utilized more power from cpu. Anto
