Type 'interbase slow append' (without the quotes) into Google Groups (not std search) and you will get a heap of threads regarding Append problems. A lot of it says that you should not be using Append, but Insert or Update instead. Also that you may be reading the whole table. Not sure why this would happen on some systems and not others, but some of the threads might give you a lead.
