DefaultDbCachePages seems ignored
----------------------------------
Key: CORE-5455
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-5455
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Engine
Affects Versions: 3.0.2
Environment: Debian 8, kernel: 3.16.0-4-amd64, FB build:
3.0.2.32669-0.amd64, server mode: Super, RAM memory: 32 Gb
Reporter: Cristiano Ferrari
FB 3.0 release notes tell me that the maximum number of pages that can be
configured for the database cache running under 64-bit environment is (2^31)-1
pages, so, 2,147,483,647 pages.
I have an database with 5.5 GB (page size 8192, 709504 pages allocated) and
want to put all database pages on cache.
So, I've set the DefaultDbCachePages parameter in firebird.conf to 800,000
pages.
Restarted service via "systemctl restart firebird-superserver.service" (checked
from firebird.log).
However, gstat show me that page cache still in default values

Before that service restart, I've set this parameters on firebird.conf (no one
per database):
DefaultDbCachePages = 800000
AuthServer = Legacy_Auth, Srp, Win_Sspi ## because using 2.5 fbclient.dll
RelaxedAliasChecking = 1 ## just in case
ConnectionTimeout = 60
WireCrypt = Disabled ## because using 2.5 fbclient.dll
LockMemSize = 10M
LockHashSlots = 65521
ServerMode = Super
