We did a quick eval of whether it would be possible to Interbase with ASP +
ADO. We discovered that Interbase 6.1 + EasySoft ODBC was slower than Access
2000 for doing simple queries. When converting to SIBProvider the speed
improved quite a bit over EasySoft. This wasn't a formal test, just 2 simple
databases (say about 500 recs per table) with a simple ASP script running
on under IIS on Win2K Prof SP1. SIBProvider "appeared" to do connection
pooling better than the EasySoft ODBC driver did (based on the amount of
disk access with each query)... can't say for sure though... Also, the last
time we looked, it appeared that the EasySoft driver was constantly being
updated... maybe performance will be addressed?
We are still hoping that IB6 would be a realistic alternative with ASP+ADO
due to the high cost of SQL Server 2000...
