Hi, 1) I think MySQL would fit your requirements list, although I don't know if that's better than Firebird for what you need. Perhaps you could install both and run some sample queries and see which is faster?
2) I'm not sure it would make a difference. Assuming a modern PC, any small differences in performance of the interface driver would be swamped by the amount of time the DBMS takes to do the actual query. If you need to run on older, slower PCs you might want to make some timing tests.
