To be precise - 9 digits into ULONG. No shifts (BTW what a problem with them, CPUs have appropriate fast support since first pentium or even more). There is one division of small integer (range from 0 to 33). It can be easily replaced with table lookup but I'm not sure is it worth doing or not - small numbers division if fast enough.
Sorry - that's all about sort, not index key. Firebird-Devel mailing list, web interface at https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-devel
